What’s new at the 2020 AMUG Conference?

This year, the annual AMUG Conference will take place in Chicago once again, from March 22 – 26! The Additive Manufacturing User Group association has been organizing this eagerly-awaited yearly conference since the 1990s. Once solely focused on the advancement of stereolithography (SLA) – the first 3D printing technology to emerge – its aim today is to educate and support users of all additive manufacturing technologies. In fact, this is the key feature of the conference: it focuses exclusively on users.

Users can be of all experience levels. The idea is to bring together those who use 3D printing so that they share their valuable experiences and insights with one another. In this way, meeting annually provides a forum for presentations of new technologies, new processes, new machines, and much more. Additionally, the event is made to feel friendly with lots of networking opportunities to become a stronger part of the community!

The event will last 5 days, from March 22 – 26, and will deliver presentations, networking sessions, and evening activities to all participants. The conference will provide over 160 speakers, panel and training sessions throughout the week on sectors such as aerospace & defence, AM metal technologies, education & training, medical & dental, etc. We are also looking forward to attending the Innovators Showcase, presented by Hans Langer, Founder of EOS. He will give insight into his background, interests and views on the AM market.
