International Fab Lab Attendee Scholarship
$5,000
The cost of traveling to Fab11, especially for attendees from developing parts of the world, is quite high. You can “Adopt a Fabber” and cover their complete travel expense including conference registration [$750], hotel, local transportation & meals for one week, airfare, visas and related expenses. Like our Best Project winners from Togo last year, many Fab Labs in underserved communities are doing some of the network’s most innovative work. Please help us bring these fabulous makers to Fab11!
