The makers work with host partners in Shenzhen on a variety of themes, including maker education, sustainability and product design innovation. As makers in residence we will immerse ourselves in the rich Shenzhen making and manufacturing ecosystem and work collaboratively on the residency projects with local makers, designers, academics, startups or creative organisations.
