Theme: I Can / Yapabilirim

Thinking and dreaming is not enough for creating or deeveloping/building our lives. If only a man can believe that “he can” do something than magic begins.
We will analyse “I Can” theme in 3 sessions:
The Real Makers (design, technical capabilities, making thing for usage in daily lives, like robots, machines, cooking or tailoring as well.)
Thinking for Making (the gap between thinking and making it real)
Obstacles (other side of madelleon) (social change and technology part… speakers who surprise us)
Tecnology makes us consumers only and we forget to things made by hyuman hand. We believe tech plus human hands can still be friends in future.
