About [Edit]

Vision:

We see several billion designers in the World. From changing their world to changing the world, they need effective resources.

Connecting designers and resources, globally, to help solve local problems. We are building the infrastructure that allows physical and digital collaboration, information exchanges and educational access, in support of healthy, beneficial product design and development.

We will be at the Craigslist Foundation Nonprofit Boot Camp in August! The corporation (for the Public Benefit) has been formed, and we're working toward 501(c)(3) tax status with the IRS.

The Original Idea was to build an online product design school with instructors, curriculum and courses. This has been replaced by a unique and universal concept of education, which is more accessible and affordable -- more open source.
