2022 Influencer Make48 Opportunities

IMG_9724.jpeg
If you haven't yet experienced a Make48, it is a 48-hour competition where teams are presented with a challenge and tasked to build a physical prototype, create a sales sheet, produce a 1-minute marketing video and pitch their big idea to a panel of judges.
Participants are supported by a team of tool technicians (that's where YOU come in) in a Makerspace full of equipment and tools to help them build nearly any solution their imaginations can conceive.  Collaboration is the key to success.​
In real life, everyone has big ideas, but only about 5% have the skills either physically or digitally to make a prototype. To build complex solutions you need collaboration, often many different materials and various pieces of equipment to finish a product. Make48 accelerates the process in a fun, fast-moving, and educational event!

Check out these options for ways to get involved in 2022!
