Howard E. Aldrich ESBRI Estrad Stockholm, September 30, 2013 Hackers, Makers, and Crowdfunding: Lowering the Barriers to Entrepreneurship

Two Global Trends Technological revolution Micro-everything IT & Social Media Enabling scaling down/up Institutional entrepreneurship Legacy of 1960’s Localism & community Facilitating collaboration & cooperation

Social Innovation & New Institutions: “Hot Causes” Rebelling against the “closed box” Promoting local production & control Doing things for yourself Earning living from own creativity & labor

“If You Can Imagine It, You Can Make It” User-Driven Innovation Medical devices Juvenile products Extreme sports Typesetting Technology wants to be free! Enabling technologies Laser cutters Computer Numerical Control (CNC) for machines 3D Printers

Some of The New Tools

Where Do “Makers” Go to Gain Access to Tools? Closed Access - $$ driven Incubators Accelerators Open Access – Cooperative & Collaborative Spaces Hackerspaces Fab Labs (MIT-sponsored) Fab Labs TechShop 1000’s globally

Hackerspaces in USA Hoboken: MakerBar SF: NoiseBridge Oakland: LiberatingOurselvesLocally Oakland: LiberatingOurselvesLocally Brooklyn: NYC Resistor Philadelphia: The HackTory Culver City: CrashSpace

Institutional Structures of Cooperation & Collaboration Education (MOCCs) Udacity Singularity Gatherings & Celebrations Maker Faires Media Make magazine Legal/regulatory Creative Commons Sharing & diffusion Maker Shed Brokers & bridges (crowd- sourced design & mfg) Quirky Thingiverse (Makerbot) 100K Garages Cloudfab Crowdspring

Example of Legal Commons “Creative Commons develops, supports, and stewards legal and technical infrastructure that maximizes digital creativity, sharing, and innovation.” “Our vision is nothing less than realizing the full potential of the Internet — universal access to research and education, full participation in culture — to drive a new era of development, growth, and productivity.”

Everyone an Investor? Democratizing Ownership Non-equity crowd funding: “rewards” Kickstarter Indiegogo Fundable (only biz) Fundable FundedByMe Non-equity crowd funding: debt/loans Equity crowd funding EquityNet Fundable (only biz) Fundable FundaGeek (for sale!)

Example of social Innovation: HarvestBot (Harvest Geek’s Kickstarter Campaign)Harvest Geek’s Monitoring a garden’s vital signs

Issues Raised by Technological & Institutional Changes 1. Team composition: how much does it matter now? 2. Will pursuit of profits corrupt the “community” & collaborative spirit? 3. Can makers & fabbers remain “small”? 4. The “Matthew” & “Sesame Street” effects: what impact will these changes have on economic inequality?
