We Are All Makers

Following the MIT models, at MannLab everyone engages in "jam sessions" (akin to playing jazz music) where we collaborate on ideas that motivate us, bringing about the greatest successes. Employeeing "demo-or-die", projects move through the lab quickly, receiving the full dedication of our forces each and every day to produce a new visible result.
