Ladyada on the panel!

We’re witnessing a paradigm shift: design innovation and experimentation is moving from research labs to the shelves. Consumers can increasingly influence, generate and spend their ways into the roles of researcher, inventor and funder. “Let’s Get Digital: New Models for Making” will bring together thought leaders from the New York City’s design, fabrication and business worlds to discuss how new technologies – like personal 3d printers— and ways of doing business – like kickstarter launches and open source— are changing the relationship between consumers, designers and producers and redefining the City’s role in production. Panelists will include Limor Fried of Adafruit Industries, John Jacobsen of Quirky, Dustyn Roberts of Dustyn Robots, Benedetta Piantella of GROUND Lab and Duann Scott of Shapeways.

Special thanks to Miquela Craytor, Euan Robertson and Alison Hodgson for putting on this event!
