Locus Labs

Locus Labs

Locus Labs is where passion, people and purpose meet-Newark, NJ's 1st educational makerspace and co-working hub. We put 21st century technology in the hands of everyday people in the community to nurture an ecosystem of true innovation.

What inspired you to make this project?:
We are a diverse team of engineers, makers, artists, educators and entrepreneurs from very different backgrounds- but with one common thread. We all saw the potential for Newark to become the next big tech hub of the Northeast. We also realized the city lacked a space that would allow everyday people of the community to take an active part in this changing narrative of the city. We came together to build this space that would provide access to 21 century tools, courses to teach applicable hands-on skills and space for budding local entrepreneurs to thrive. Locus Labs is where passion, people and purpose meet!
