Local Motors operates a growing global network of microfactories, where each destination is a place for innovators to create amazing products and consumers the opportunity to marvel and shop. It has rallied a global network of inspired innovators ready to confront the world’s most formidable challenges. These dreamers and doers have brought to life a portfolio of vehicles, including Olli, the world's first cognitive, self-driving shuttle. Their creative potential is launching a new industrial revolution. Local Motors offers this unique software as a service platform known as Launch Forth, to offer the power of co-creation and micro-manufacturing to select partners, including GE and Airbus, looking for manufacturing agility and boundless creative potential.
