158 years ago, a thousand men, I Mille, guided by Garibaldi turned the world upside down. Literally. They circumnavigated southbound the Italian peninsula, reached the bottom of the Boot, and took to climbing (aka fighting) northbound, disrupting the old social order. Garibaldi was a visionary: contemporary Italy needed a good remoulding, somehow he saw into our national future and made sure that future would happen then and there.

Turin became the Capital of this new order.

As Turin-based shapers of news ideas and new objects, we take our lead from Garibaldi’s example. Thus far, we have turned inside-out Italy’s manufacturing model, shifting it from vertical to horizontal: our network of 3D printing hubs covers a large chunk of Northern Italy.

 

Q3d is not just our latest creation. First and foremost, Q3d is a test of your support. It’s up to you whether our zero-marginal-cost model will catch like wildfire and disrupt the old order for good.

You are neither our audience, nor an accidental passer-by, nor an impartial external monitor of our deeds. Look at the pictures. There is plenty of room. We are not mille yet.

It’s up to you to say, “Yes, Politronica, I’m on board!”

Here is your chance to show your support.
