On September 27, Tokyo Fabhub and Ogawa Technical Works co-arranged the 2^nd Maker’s Junction, a program for university students and manufacturers to meet, exchange, and collaborate.

Total of 26 people, including 19 students of Tokyo University of Science, participated the program and visited small factories and workshops in Katsushika-Ward, Tokyo.

The program was designed to visit factories in different categories, each selected from machine manufacturing, machining, and traditional craftsman (Japanese swordsmith).
