Biography

Marcin Jakubowski is a Polish-American physicist, technologist, and founder of Open Source Ecology. After immigrating to the U.S. from Poland as a child, he earned a degree with honors from Princeton University and completed a Ph.D. in fusion physics at the University of Wisconsin. Disillusioned by the disconnect between advanced research and real-world challenges, he launched Open Source Ecology in 2003 to make closed-loop, regenerative manufacturing accessible to all. He leads development of the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS)—a modular, open source platform of 50 industrial machines required to build a modern civilization from scratch. Marcin is a TED Senior Fellow, Shuttleworth Foundation Fellow, and was recognized by Time Magazine’s Best Inventions of 2012 and as a White House Champion of Change.
