Hi Jose!

A few weeks ago, we launched our Viral Response Roundtable series. Hosted
by Wikifactory co-founder Christina Rebel, these sessions bring together
experts and community members to share insights and learning from diverse
perspectives. Here is a recap of what we have learned so far:

Wikifactory set the stage by setting out *why we launched the **Viral
Response platform*.
<https://wikifactory-24be178391b8.intercom-clicks.com/via/e?ob=SvjDZA%2BcDpDkbtADYaAAfJmdu2ZUmu7ZCNbZA%2B4k2T8%3D&h=713430555f934b1c1e1cb4ba5e8f1c9488689c18-f7fp07h1_27286548820&l=c9d99e0261869b4685bc4def364cb2a7617b10df-3409550>
Therefore, our first session was on focused on *Collaborative Innovation
for Future Resilience.*

Among many other things that were discussed, we learned that *simple
designs can be the most effective ones*, *as they can be easily replicated*.
Furthermore, *the importance of speed* when supporting those in need when
the supply chains fail us, and related to that, the importance innovating
globally but producing locally through a global community and digital
fabrication technologies.

The final questions and conclusion focused on possibilities of what the
future holds for this industry - that is, how it will have to move and work
together with the collaboration of experts from other industries.

In the second session, we deepened the discussion with one of the most
recurring themes in the open hardware community: *funding*. This time, and
considering how fast we need to act when fighting COVID-19, *we invited
founders of non-profit open initiatives and experts involved in EU funded
projects*.

We learned from Jon Schull, founder of *E-Nable*
<https://wikifactory-24be178391b8.intercom-clicks.com/via/e?ob=7dWUMIoT%2F94tfhWZAahgieXi7d%2BYbKOg5R7JQcoUwvU%3D&h=787dccb0e8579594dfde7de1c216cd7ba859a582-f7fp07h1_27286548820&l=d0f16387a05a2629b575d514779a250849f9ff52-3409490>,
that they work with a *global online community that produces freely donated
devices* allowing them to work with no funding, reaching a much larger
audience. Other solutions focused on investment funding and collaborating
with other institutions, although *proof and results are a must* in that
case, and how it is necessary to *learn how to communicate about projects
in order to attract experts* from other fields.

Moving on to our third session, there were shared perspectives on *community
building for open hardware projects*. The main insights included the
importance of self-organisation within the maker communities, and once this
structure is defined, there is a need to determine the role of each player
within the project, and to attract *experts from the manufacturing, legal
and medical fields*. Furthermore, often many groups *don't communicate with
each other* and end up designing things that have already been created.
Therefore, Slack was mentioned as a great tool to connect initiatives and
communicate within smaller groups.

Requirements need to be defined from the start, avoiding inefficiencies.
Helpful Engineering even established a *selection process based on the
team's experience, impact and scalability*. Once a project is accepted, it
enters an incubation process where it receives supports from experts to
define the requirements, evaluate funding opportunities and recruit new
team members.

However, *how do you sustain this once the hype dies down and "normality"
returns?* More critically, how do you build on what was been learned, so
the world is better prepared in the future? Oscar Velazquez talked about
building long-term solutions, and how *Impact MX*

is funding projects focused on preparing for the New Normal. Tom Salfield,
CEO of Wikifactory, emphasized that we need *new business models that can
be easily adopted in this context* and to make visible the success stories
that show what's possible.

We would also like to thank *Brynmor John*
