Joel Gibbard

CEO of Open Bionics, British Young Design Engineer of the Year

Founded the Open Hand Project in 2013 to develop low-cost and open source robotic hands. Ran a successful indiegogo campaign to raise the money to develop designs that were downloaded and built all over the world. Following the Open Hand Project I co-founded Open Bionics to bring bionics to amputees at an affordable cost. The company has won numerous awards and has pioneered the development of new, low-cost and customized 3D printed bionic hands.
