Last chance to nominate in 2018 3D Printing Industry Awards

The 3D Printing Industry Awards are back for 2018.

On May 17th 2018, industry leaders will gather at a central London location where the winners will be announced. To meet increased demand for tickets we have found a larger venue, there is some exciting news about this venue coming soon.

The 3D Printing Industry Awards are nominated and voted upon by you, our readers. In 2017 we received over 200,000 votes – making the 3D Printing Industry Awards also the largest survey of the industry.
