p2: Top-down view of a makerspace. There are big laser cutter machines with tubes coming out of them, workbenches with scattered tools, shelves with parts along the back, and tables with a 3D printer and a robot arm.
This makerspace is co-funded by the Chinese government and a local real estate developer. The space aims to encourage and showcase Shenzhen's innovation potential.
