CAU SHAiRED Fab Lab
A digital fabrication space where HBCU students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members bring their ideas to life — turning discoveries and customer-validated concepts into tangible products.
About the Fab Lab
The CAU SHAiRED Fab Lab at Clark Atlanta University is an extension of the CAU School of Business, the CAU Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurial Development (CIED), and the HBCU SHAiRED Lab.
Our equipment lets members move ideas that have gone through customer discovery into real, physical products — bridging the gap between research, entrepreneurship, and manufacturing.
