The OneMaker Group (OMG) was formed out of business necessity. In 2014, we successfully bid to operate an early-stage prototyping facility for start-up entrepreneurs at the National Design Centre, in response to a public-private partnership call by two government agencies (SPRING Singapore and the DesignSingapore Council). The facility provides physical spaces, tools and equipment to support makers in bringing their dream projects to fruition. Additionally, it also serves as a nexus for the gathering of inventive minds where they can learn, share and collaborate to think up the next big thing. We believe that the maker movement in Singapore will be a way to tap and grow our own capability and talent, doing something that we love and are passionate about.

Since our formation, we have been operating our anchor makerspace, the Makerspace@NDC (previously known as Prototyping Lab@NDC) at the National Design Centre. We are also contracted to design, equip and manage other makerspaces for external organisations, schools and tertiary institutions. All our locations are equipped with the latest digital fabrication tools, electronics kits and machine tools along with conducive workspaces. Besides long-term service contracts, our business revolves around helping our clients to design and implement hands-on learning programmes in design, STEM/STEAM and maker education.
