Voices

“…good opportunity for cross

pollination of ideas...”

“… found several concepts that with

sufficient work will be commercially viable

in the future...”

“It really brought a lot of local

Singapore makers together…”

“… hopefully next year we could make it a

bigger "mini" Maker Faire and reach out to

more people...”

“Woo hoo!! Singapore has its own

pool of Makers!!”

“…Everyone was packing up at the end of

the Faire, when a young boy went up to

a Maker dismantling something and

asked – ‘how do you make that?’ ‘Well,

this is how…’ said the Maker, who then

sat down and patiently explained despite

it getting late! And that’s what the whole

spirit of a Maker Faire is about… “
