FabLab Information

FabLab is a non-government organization from Zagreb, Croatia, founded in summer of 2013. The goal of the organization is to promote digital fabrication in general, and 3D printing as a current global trend with significant impact on economy. FabLab is open to everyone with similar interests and willingness to participate! Our efforts have been recognized and we are active members of two large EU projects: InterReg CE FabLabNet Project and Horizon 2020 Make-It Project. FabLab.hr is the first of such associations in this part of Europe, and it is a part of the International FabLab association, based on the MIT FabLab Charter. The association has been registered to facilitate the following: - planning, promotion, events and education related to digital fabrication - familiarizing the general public with the developments and application of digital fabrication in business - publishing books, magazines and digital publications related to additive technologies - strengthening cooperation with similar Croatian and international associations In addition to the above listed activities, the association has the following missions: The first one is education, for everyone who needs and desires this kind of education, from the youngest ones, hopefully broadening their horizons, to the older ones, wishing to expand their knowledge. There are no age limits, and our activities are customized for different age groups. The second is related to the problems of the local community, and to persons who can benefit from new technologies in their lives, for example people with certain disabilities and the solutions addressing their needs. The third is the development of entrepreneurial mindset and transforming ideas into products. The role of FabLab is to help in realization of the ideas of creative individuals or groups.
