At a festive closing event, Senator for Economic Affairs Michael Westhagemann awarded prizes to the best ideas of the Fab City Hamburg Maker Challenge. A total of 95 ideas were submitted to the Maker Challenge ideas competition launched by the Fab City initiative. The product ideas had to be innovative, sustainable, have added social value and be producible in a Fab Lab in Hamburg. The variety of ideas submitted was great: from bend lighting for bicycles and smart trash cans to a wheelchair that can climb stairs. After the end of the public voting phase, in which almost 30,000 votes were cast, and the jury's decision, the best 20 ideas were awarded prizes. In fall 2022, during the so-called prototyping phase, these ideas have been further developed into physical prototypes in the city's Fab Labs with the support of experts.
In addition, special prizes were awarded in the areas of #social, #sustainable and #innovative, as well as the "best student project" and the "best collaborator".
