Hi, I am Andrew Lamb and I am innovating networks of demand and supply

I work with the Internet of Production Alliance, which is pioneering open infrastructures for distributed manufacturing. I am also working on the Local Procurement Learning Partnership that emerged out of my work in the humanitarian relief sector as a way to help aid agencies buy locally made supplies. I live in Sydney and love Lego.

You can contact me through LinkedIn - do feel free to reach out.
