Video: Now In Shenzhen: Workshop, Trouble Maker and Gravity Innovation
This is the final post of Now in Shenzhen, where TechNode visits a handful of Shenzhen-based companies leveraging Shenzhen’s core strength: manufacturing.
Shenzhen is becoming an ever dynamic place for startups and makers, and the city now is seeing more companies finding a niche in the market that big factories and notable hardware accelerators could not embrace. Workshop, the Uber of manufacturing to beat big factories, and Trouble Maker, a co-working space for non-professional makers are a good example of that trend. You can see that the manufacturing is moving towards serving much smaller scale of startups and individuals. Here’s our video of visiting Workshop, Trouble Maker and Gravity Innovation. Hope you enjoy it!
