Supercharging Start-ups at mHub w/Bill Fienup

In this episode of the Bom: Engineering A Path Forward we’re at Chicago’s ideal fab lab, mHub with co-founder Bill Fienup. Most design labs in the US work off a basic subscription model and have access to tools that most start-ups don’t have. mHub is no different in that aspect but as Bill explains, the level of funding, mentorship, and expertise offered to the start-ups working with mHub sets the space apart. We’ll also hear about Bill’s time working in plasma research at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and what access to tools can do for innovation. mHubApply to mHubThe views and opinions expressed within this content are solely the speaker's and do not reflect the opinions and beliefs of Supplyframe or its affiliates.
