3D printing startup of the year is proving to be a popular category in our 2018 3D Printing Industry Awards.
In addition to the 10 3D printing startups shortlisted during the nomination process, our readers have used the wildcard option to vote for more than 70 additional enterprises.
We’ve included the wildcard option to ensure that the 3D Printing Industry Awards fully reflects the rapidly evolving additive manufacturing landscape.
Our readers are voting for startups across the 3D printing eco-system, covering enterprises involved in hardware, materials and software. The 3D printing startups included manufacturers of highly reliable desktop FDM 3D printers, high resolution DLP 3D printers, metal 3D printers, nanotechnology for 3D printing and the first company to bring a smartphone 3D printer to market.
Do you think the best 3D printing startup of 2018 is focused on topology optimization, generative design or connecting and optimizing the digital thread, bringing blockchain security to the additive manufacturing world?
In this category we also see a billion dollar tech-unicorn, silicon valley’s original startup and a company that only officially emerged from stealth mode this week and is bringing a new 3D printing technology to market.
