The dream of a 3D printer in every home has gone. That doesn’t mean consumers won’t be impacted by 3D printing, they will, but not in the way the hype suggested. Join TCT at CES 2017 to evaluate the reality. Chester, UK, December 14th, 2016 On Friday, January 6 at CES 2017, The TCT Group will present an exciting one day program entitled, “3D Printing: Evaluating the Evolution”, which aims to explore the reality of how consumers will be affected by 3D printing in a wide range of sectors including health and fitness, apparel, design, transport and the Internet of Things.
Now in its fourth year, the TCT Conference at CES goes from strength to strength with past delegates including Airbus, Amazon, BMW, DoD, Facebook, Hyundai, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Northrop Grumman, Phillips, PING, Tencent and Walmart. All of whom attend to get the very latest updates on the technology, hear about breakthrough applications, and get a steer on how 3D printing will impact our lives in the future.
The stellar 2017 line-up features presentations from the Oscar-nominated animation studio, LAIKA, sportswear giant Reebok, and GE Additive – the company that has just validated the entire industry with a billion-dollar investment.
Complementing these exciting presentations will be further insights from SAP, Intel and the exciting open source manufacturer Local Motors which uses 3D printing extensively in its vehicle production. The day will conclude with the engaging Todd Grimm hosting a discussion panel with many of the days speakers contributing. It promises to deliver world class insight into what is possible today and what might be tomorrow.
