Innovate and Collaborate: Inside TSRB’s Maker Spaces
Jan 09, 2025 — Atlanta
The Technology Square Research Building (TSRB) at Georgia Tech houses two invaluable community maker spaces that embody Tech Square's ethos of collaboration: the IPaT Prototyping Lab and Craft Lab. These spaces, overseen by research technologist Tim Trent, offer more than cutting-edge equipment; they create hubs of interdisciplinary collaboration, skill-building, and innovation among students, faculty, artists, startups, and external partners.
Tim Trent, a research technologist in IPaT (the Institute for People and Technology) with years of experience at Georgia Tech, is passionate about maker spaces' unique role in education and community-building. “Maker spaces are a physical manifestation of Tech Square’s collaborative spirit,” he says. "They bring people together through technology, fostering connections across institutes, departments, and beyond."
