MAKErSPACE

Membership

A place to roll up your sleeves and learn, tinker, and create. We’re building this space with the community, for the community.

Startup YMM is home to our region’s first technology Makerspace - a community-operated workspace for people with interests in machining, computing science, and digital and electronic art, to meet, experiment and collaborate.

 

Bring your ideas to life.

The Startup YMM Makerspace is the perfect place to turn an idea into something tangible. But you don’t need to be an expert to be part of this community.


We’re looking for:

● The tech-curious—people who are excited by technology and want a place to learn and safely experiment with new equipment.

● Technology enthusiasts with moderate to advanced skills in computer science, coding, mechanics, robotics, and engineering who want to play, explore, and build using tools they can’t easily find anywhere else.

Build a prototype and share it with the world.

Our Makerspace will give members access to the latest tools for innovation. 


● Rapid Prototyping (3D Printer, Laser Cutter)

●  Augmented and Virtual Reality

●  Hardware Development (Robotics, Electronics, Internet of Things)

●  Media and Design (Animation, Green Screen, Video Editing tools)

●  Software Development (Coding Tools, Laptops)
