Pitch
The Science, Technology and Innovation Center Lab is the first Tanzanian Maker Space equipped to provide technical and engineering solutions to social problems through the utilization of locally available resources. 80% of the equipment being used is made locally by STICLab itself. STICLab provides a productive environment for scientists, makers and innovators, providing full access to a state of the art digital fabrication resources that support product development from idea creation through to production. Some realizations include: water vending machine; circuit printing device; catfish breeding machine; e-waste 3D printer... STICLab welcomes individuals from different backgrounds with engineering and technical ideas that could transform society to use its facilities.
