I’m getting ready to help showcase a “Workshop of the Future” at the FAB LAB at Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton, Wisc. The event is April 30th 4 to 6 p.m., and is designed to connect people and their ideas to the world!

I invite you to check it out. You’ll be able to create, collaborate, learn and build just about anything you can imagine, and then connect to experts who personally help make innovators’ dreams into reality.

A little FAB LAB background: The Fabrication Laboratory concept was created by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor Dr. Neil Gershenfeld and his team at the MIT Center for Bits and Atoms. It integrates local expertise, global resources and bench top fabrication technology to deliver personalized fabrication or rapid, proof-of-concept prototyping.

The FAB LAB at FVTC is only the 16th in the world and first production facility in the USA outside of MIT. It’s also the first to focus on entrepreneurs and developing businesses in partnership with the FVTC Venture Center. I’m proud to champion this resource!

If you’re an existing business, a student, a “garage inventor” or a creative soul with a great idea, you can have access to personalized product prototyping. The FAB LAB is open to FVTC students, our partner organizations and the general public, through a variety of packaged options.

he FAB LAB is a unique “Innovation Center” that provides innovators/inventors the knowledge base and resources to translate their idea into a prototype product. We provide industry expertise at FVTC in engineering and manufacturing who will help you make almost anything on specific technology needed for product prototyping. Learn how to use laser engraver cutters, CAD programs, milling machines and more.
