August has been a remarkable month for the New Production Institute as our team embarked on a journey to Mexico to participate in two significant events: the Fab Conference and the Fab City Summit.
From April to December 2024, everything at Jupiter will once again revolve around the topic of "circular economy" in Hamburg and we are delighted to be live on site with the OpenLab Microfactory to demonstrate new concepts for local and sustainable production.
This open access book, published in May 2024, provides current, interdisciplinary research insights into the Fab City concept. An approach that describes how modes of production and consumption can be designed. The work includes contributions from the fields of Citizen & Collaborative Innovation, Circular Design & Economy, Open Source Software Tools, Digital Product Passport, Federated (Open Source) Systems and Economic Governance.
Improving the competitiveness of the Port of Hamburg depends to a large extent on various innovative factors. The revolutionary technology of 3D printing plays a central role in sustainably strengthening competition. To give interested and enthusiastic actors from the maritime and logistics sectors an insight into the current state of the technology, the Fab City Haus is inviting them to open its doors as part of the Discovery.Hamburg tour.
The Pop-Up Circular Hub (PUCH) exhibition was a temporary hub for circular economy actors in and around Hamburg and took place from November 20 to December 8, 2023. The New Production Institute set up a microfactory to bring local production closer to Hamburg's citizens with individual building workshops.
The 'Center for Transnational IP, Media and Technology Law and Policy' at Bucerius Law School is tasked as a project partner in the dtec.bw project 'Fab City - Decentralized Digital Production for Urban Value Creation' with the legal examination of the Fab City and Open Lab infrastructure.
Locally produced. Globally connected. The Fab City project aims to establish resilient and sustainable cities by pursuing an integrative approach. This approach includes the sharing of knowledge within a global network and the systematic characterization of infrastructure technologies for local production.
Circular Economy in the heart of our city. From November 20 to December 7, 2023, the former Karstadt Sport building (now Jupiter Campus) at Mönckebergstraße 2-4 will provide information, events and contacts on a wide range of topics relating to the circular economy.
Exhibition at EMO-Hannover 2023 on the possibilities of local, circular production through an open microfactory. With open source hardware machines and data-based operation in the form of digital product data and automatic measurement of electrical energy consumption, for example, statements can be made about energy consumption per machine use.
Keynote talk by Dr.-Ing. Tobias Redlich at the 4th ICEEIT2023 conference, talking about pioneering decentralized production & circular economy with Open Source Hardware.
