Alex Rousselet

Alex Rousselet calls himself a digital nomad exploring the maker movement since 2013. He spent his life on a farm in the rural area, until he became an Erasmus student in Ireland and visited his first Makerspace. This sparked the idea to go visit as many of them possible in Europe. He converted a van and started a full cooperation with Vulca Ngo. He has been travelling around for 10 years, getting to know different fablabs and makerspaces and bulding relationships on the way. The network today consist of 36 countries visited, more than 500 meetings organised and many of them participated in international conferences related to European Cooperation for Fablabs / Makerspaces / Hackerspaces. Today he puts his skills and energy in 3 complementary organisations : -> Local level : Mountain Makers - It's the Makerspace of my village.
