Marcin Jakubowski, Board of Directors, President
Bio: Marcin came to the U.S. from Poland as a child. As a farmer, technologist and ambitious entrepreneur, he is working to start a new civilization from scratch in Midwestern USA. He graduated with honors from Princeton and earned his PhD in Fusion Physics from the University of Wisconsin. Frustrated with the lack of relevance to pressing world issues in his education, he founded Open Source Ecology in 2003 and began development on the Global Village Construction Set, a DIY tool-set of 50 different industrial machines that it takes to build a small civilization with modern comforts. The aim is to enable everyone, from the remote villages in developing countries to the rural farms of Missouri - to access powerful, appropriate tools for creating better lives. Marcin says his goal is to create the Open Source Economy; an efficient economy that optimizes both production and distribution, while providing environmental regeneration and social justice - an economy that promotes autonomy and meaning.
As Founder, Marcin's role at Open Source Ecology (OSE) is to lead the clarity and vision for the development of the Global Village Construction Set - as a step towards creating the open source economy - OSE's core mission. See Marcin's TED Talk.

He then developed the first Sustainability program in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education and developed the Applied Sustainability graduate program at Queen's University in Canada. He currently is an Associate Professor cross-appointed in the Department of Materials Science & Engineering and in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the Michigan Technological University. He runs the Michigan Tech Open Sustainability Technology Lab, whose research concentrates on the use of open source appropriate technology to find collaborative solutions to problems in sustainability and poverty reduction. Specifically he is interested in exploring the way solar energy can be used to provide clean sustainable electricity with photovoltaic devices and how the sharing of open source hardware and software can create sustainable and equitable means of production. His research group frequently contributes to Appropedia.org and has become well-known for cost annihilation using open hardware including the first viable low-cost metal RepRap 3-D printer, the recyclebot waste plastic extruder, and a wide array of scientific equipment covered in the Open-Source Lab.
