We all know the benefits of open software, but not as many of us take the step into designing and building the hardware to run it on.

Consumers are left with a choice of mass-market devices - hoping the company doesn't turn off its servers, and doesn't sell their data - or going DIY and soldering up things themselves.

We need a wealth of Indie Manufacturers, building open hardware devices to provide more options and freedom to end users. This talk shows MCQN Ltd's path on that journey and how you could follow it too.
