Makers with a Mission

Makerversity builds and supports communities of the most exciting maker businesses. Our mission is to support and grow a diverse selection of the most exciting maker start-ups. From designers to hackers, engineers to wearable technologists, makers to inventors, we provide space, people and support to develop your creative practice. We aren’t a university, incubator or accelerator - we enable our multidisciplinary creative community to do the work they need to on their own terms.

The Makers with a Mission programme supports 20 designers each year who have a world changing design, prototype or businesses with 6 months free membership for an individual or a team of up to 3.

Makers With A Mission are value driven. They are looking to challenge society's ideas and behaviours through the things they make. Sound like you?
