After initially filing for an IPO back in February, the industry’s most established and experienced 3D printing service bureau and software developer, Materialise, finally held its IPO this morning on the NASDAQ. Trading under the symbol MTLS, the company opened at $12/share, the company raised $96 million by offering 8 million shares on the exchange. To celebrate this joyous event, the company was invited to ring the stock exchange’s opening bell. And, to do the honors, Materiliase CEO, Wilfried Vancraen, invited a patient whose life had been improved by a jaw implant 3D printed by the company and installed just 14 days ago.
You can watch the entire ceremony here at hour 6, minute 24, but if you just like pictures of things, here’s the company bathed in ticker tape below.
