Marcelo Rovai | “I have received so much — now it’s time for me to give back to the community!”
Last week, we shared Professor Marcelo Rovai’s maker journey—creating greatness from the smallest things. From engineer to corporate executive, then university educator and open-source technology advocate, he has consistently explored how technology can truly benefit the masses as a lifelong learner.
At Maker Faire Shenzhen 2025, Professor Rovai not only delivered an inspiring talk about solving real, pressing problems in Southern Hemisphere countries with TinyML technology, but also offered invaluable advice to the global maker community in an interview. His insights—spanning technical practices, educational philosophies, and sustaining the maker spirit—provided profound inspiration.
