Pixelache workshop: How to co-design an Open Design community (Helsinki, Finland) - updated

Massimo Menichinelli has been invited by Pixelache to host a workshop about how to organize an Open Design community with a collaborative process. The workshop will take place this September in Helsinki (Finland).
