Maker to Market: Turning Your Idea into a Product

Description

Have a product idea—or a small business that needs to make more without investing in expensive equipment? Join the CSM Velocity Center Makerspace for Maker to Market, designed for entrepreneurs, makers, and small business owners.

Learn how to turn an idea into something you can build, test, refine, and take to market without having to purchase the equipment yourself. Explore how the CSM Velocity Center Makerspace can provide access to tools and technology, while connections with the Southern Maryland Small Business Development Center (SBDC), Maryland Commerce and TEDCO can help you develop your product and grow your business.

The event will include:

• Makerspace Resources – Explore tools and equipment available to help you create products without the cost of owning them.
• Business Support – Learn about resources available through SBDC, Maryland Commerce and TEDCO.
• Roundtable Discussion – Hear real-world perspectives from Makerspace members and business owners.
• Guided Tour – See the equipment, technology, and capabilities available at the CSM Velocity Center Makerspace.

Whether you're exploring a new product idea, already running a business, or looking for a more affordable way to produce small quantities of branded or fabricated products, this session will help you see what may be possible.
