GizmoMaker expands Peace Through Innovation initiative and scholarships for young founders

TEL AVIV — GizmoMaker today announced an expansion of its Peace Through Innovation initiative and its scholarship program for young founders. The programs provide mentorship, funding and access to the company's engineering and prototyping resources for early-stage hardware entrepreneurs.

The scholarship program supports selected founders with guidance across engineering, industrial design, intellectual property and manufacturing, drawing on the same end-to-end capabilities GizmoMaker uses for its own ventures. Recipients also gain access to the company's prototyping and 3D-printing facilities.

The Peace Through Innovation initiative promotes collaboration across communities and borders, using shared work on hardware and technology as a foundation for cooperation. GizmoMaker said the initiative reflects values that have shaped the company since its founding in Tel Aviv.

GizmoMaker said it intends to grow both programs over the coming years, increasing the number of scholarship recipients and broadening the reach of its innovation and collaboration efforts internationally.
