    Visualizing the 3D Printing Landscape

    By Dr Jon Harrop, Director, IDTechEx

    Space is limited – reserve your seat today!

    The world of 3D printing continues to diversify and expand with ever more printers coming on the market and even completely new technologies. Each of these printing processes has its own advantages and disadvantages. We present our latest findings on the technical capabilities of current and forthcoming 3D printing technologies. We will use new visualizations developed for our latest market research report to highlight key differentiators between printing technologies and to identify some prominent gaps in the market. Finally, we shall take a look at the opportunities that are literally off the charts and identify some of the major innovations we expect to emerge commercially over the next year that will fill some of these unmet needs.

    • Overview of existing 3D printing technologies
    • Latest quantitative data
    • New visualizations of the market
    • Unmet needs and market opportunities
