Drexel University and IEEE Philadelphia are hosting a panel discussion on the Philadelphia Making community, what it means to be a “Maker,” the interest in “Makerspaces,” and how Making affects STEAM education on Sunday, March 5 from 1:00pm – 4:00pm in the Innovation Studio.

The discussion will be led by Benjamin Hylak, a current student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, inventor and national award winner. Hylak has been named a “20 Under 20 STEAM Pioneer,” a prestigious distinction presented by The Huffington Post to individuals under the age of 20 who are the next generation of the best and the brightest innovators.

Other panelists include:

  • Marvin Weinberger
    Inventor-in-Chief, Innovation Factory
  • Jeff Gregorio
    PhD candidate, Electrical and Computer Engineering
