Ziv Bar Ilan

In the past I`ve also mentored research groups in miLAB the Innovation Lab at The Interdisciplinary Center (IDC), Herzliya, Israel and lectured at the Masters Program of Industrial Design at Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Jerusalem among other Israeli design schools. Based on our practical experience, we also give consulting services on how to incorporate and implement open source hardware models and applications.

I enjoy speaking to curious crowds both in academia and to the mass media with past appearances on Reuters, ZDF German TV and AFP among many others.

Once a year I try to explore and publish one new fresh idea. Over the years I've contributed articles to Innovation Journal, Design Management Review and I.D Magazine among many others.

I’m fascinated by Wikipedia, all disciplines of design and any form of expression.
I believe in empowering the individual with non hierarchical platforms as a path for equal opportunities. Enabling information, knowledge and resources as free accessible commodities.

Zoybar allows me to incorporate and share several great passions of mine:
Design, Researching, Prototyping, and Music, all in a continuous collaborative process.

Since its launch, Zoybar has been recognized and awarded as a pioneer in the field of hardware design and innovation processes. Zoybar has been featured in various magazines, Journals and TV Shows around the world such as REUTERS, AFP, ZDF German TV, Fast Company and I.D magazine to name a few. On January 2010 Zoybar received the Atir award - The Israeli Industrial Design Award presented by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Labor and the Israeli manufacturing association.
