As many of your already know, our next meetings looks at makerspaces. We last looked at Makerspaces four years ago. Since this time the maker movement has evolved, often, but not always, for the better.

We have two 45 minute talks with a total of five speakers. Full details of the event and how to book are online:

https://ossg.bcs.org/blog/event/makerspaces/

We'll also be live streaming and recording the talk. Details will be added to the webpage and tweeted on @bcsossg shortly before the talk.

Dr Jenny Molloy, Tony Naggs and Anne-Pia Marty of Biomakespace Cambridge will talk on setting up and running a maker space for interdisciplinary work covering both technology and natural science

Dr Laura James, co-founder of Cambridge Makerspace and Adrian McEwen, founder of DoES Liverpool will provide a critical review of maker spaces and their role in wider society.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Best wishes,

Jeremy Bennett Open Source Specialist Group chair
