After the success of our previous ADDITIV virtual events, which have brought together additive manufacturing professionals with key players in different industries, we are back once again. This time, join us on June 6th for ADDITIV Medical World, a half-day virtual event dedicated to bringing together the 3D printing and medical sectors. Along with ADDITIV Medical World’s sponsor, Prodways, as well as our partners SPE, SPE Additive Manufacturing, IAM3DHUB, ASTM International, ASME and AMGTA, we will be welcoming an expected 500+ attendees to a day full of panel discussions, workshops and of course networking. Register for free to attend!
3D printing is hardly new in the medical industry. In fact, the global medical devices market alone was valued at about $2.55 billion in 2022 according to Straits Research, and will grow at a CAGR of 16.1% reaching about $9.79 billion by 2031. And of course, medical devices are not the only application for medical 3D printing. Additive manufacturing is already being used in everything from dentistry to actually helping plan complicated surgeries, and these applications will only grow in coming years, especially as technologies like bioprinting continues to mature. That is why events like ADDITIV Medical World are so critical. Through these, companies working in additive manufacturing and those in the healthcare sector are able to come together to exchange, discuss and learn.
3D printing has a wide range of applications in healthcare including surgical planning
Filippos Voulpiotis, Chief Business Officer of 3Dnatives explains, “The ever evolving healthcare sector is always integrating new ways to improve its solutions. Over the years, additive manufacturing applications have been introduced, integrated, and are now the norm in many cases. The unique added value of 3D printing parts, from implants and prosthetics to surgical tools and hearing aids, is evident when you see how many 3D printed parts are used! It is our mission at ADDITIV and 3Dnatives to bring our audiences to the forefront of innovation, allowing them to get informed from top industry professionals and interact with like-minded people. ADDITIV events are all about value exchange and industry progress. We are very proud and happy to welcome any professional interested in additive manufacturing in the medical sector on June 6th!”
