ORLANDO, FL (October 8, 2018) — Watershed Innovation, Correct Craft’s technology company, announced its support of the local maker community by sponsoring Maker Faire Orlando that will take place on November 10th and 11th at Central Florida Fairgrounds and Expo Hall.

Through this event, the Watershed team will be available to discuss how disruptive innovation is being applied at Correct Craft, a growing manufacturing company that was founded in Central Florida nearly a century ago.

Maker Faire is a non-profit and community organized event that gathers people together who enjoy learning and sharing the passions of making. People of all ages from kids to students to hobbyists to engineers will be represented at Maker Faire.

Watershed President Sean Marrero stated, “The world is changing quickly, and outside thinking is a critical part of creating a better future for our customers. Maker Faire Orlando reminds us that we don’t have to go far to see the future; it is being created in our own back yard.” Marrero added, “Giving back is part of our culture, and when we can connect what we are doing at Watershed to some of the most innovative people in our community, it is a real win/win.”
