From idea to prototype

Makerspace

Launchpad for ideas

For innovative product ideas from the deep-tech sector, the Makerspace of the DESY Innovation Factory offers 120m2 of experimental space for 3D printing, mechanics and electronics. Prototypes can be developed and tested for their feasibility in reality there. Offices, co-working spaces (up to ten people) and rooms for community events are available for evaluating results and exchanging ideas. Flexible and quick booking options facilitate spontaneous work planning.
The offer is aimed at (pre-)founders, start-ups & scale-ups and can be used for transfer & collaboration projects. The Makerspace is run by Start-up Labs Hamburg and is located in the Innovation Village on the DESY campus - the Makerspace is thus another contact point for innovators in the growing Science City Bahrenfeld.
