MediaTek Labs: the cradle of gadget projects of ordinary enthusiasts
Twenty five million four hundred thirty four thousand one hundred seventy five
The phenomenon of "crowdfunding", finding money through crowd, becoming more popular among enthusiasts of high technology, various startups, developers, dreams to realize the most daring projects. But unfortunately, today, to "cry" about collecting money for revolutionary fitness bracelet, or, say, drone helicopter can not all. Though, because many crowdfunding platforms simply don't work with Russia, Ukraine, Belarus.
Of course, money to develop a gadget you can ask from investors. However, they are most likely to indicate to the enthusiast at the door: for he has not even a working prototype of the device. One naked idea! What to do, what to do? There are options. In September 2014, the company MediaTek has launched the project "Technocenter" MediaTek Labs. Its goal is to establish an international community for professionals and enthusiasts gadgetsteria regardless of their position on the map, education and status. Yes, some knowledge in electronics and high technology party MediaTek Labs to be still desirable. And yet the project is open not only for professional engineers and programmers, but also including just standard bearers (read – visionaries) and aspiring entrepreneurs in the field of computer hardware.

Why MediaTek Labs is especially interesting to Russians? It's simple. If the U.S. and Asian countries have all the conditions for the independent development and production of modern gadgets, we can say that in Russia such examples, and does not reach a dozen. As a rule, our compatriots prefer to create online services and software products, but not the hardware. Thundered YotaPhone could be called a pleasant exception, if not a number "but". The most important of these "but" million financing, which is not enthusiasts who dream to develop their own gadget.
There are other reasons of a serious backlog of Russia in the development of portable electronics. For example, difficulties with logistics: trivial complexity of the operational order and delivery of electronic components from abroad. Plays a role the lack of a developed community of like-minded people who are interested in developing gadgets. And such situation not only in Russia – enthusiasts from India, Argentina, Egypt and many other countries face similar problems.

On it drew the attention of the company MediaTek, the second largest global developer of processors for mobile devices.
