We are proud to announce the 2020 Ultimaker Innovators list. It is the first in what will become a yearly celebration of individuals and teams achieving greatness within the 3D printing industry.
What is The Ultimaker Innovators list?
The Ultimaker Innovators list places the spotlight on individuals or teams around the world using 3D printing to transform the ways people work, think, and live. It is a showcase of 3D printing technology and the innovative results than can be achieved through its use.
Ultimaker’s intent is to celebrate contributions to the industry. We wish to honor Ultimaker Innovators collectively for pushing forward the field, technology, and world. They have therefore opted to not present it as a competition or ranked list. they also made a conscious decision to look at the 3D printing industry as a whole – not just at those using Ultimaker 3D printers, materials, or software.
Why are Ultimaker doing it?
Innovation is the driving force behind Ultimaker, and they encourage and support the advancement of the 3D printing industry. As such, they believe that those working within the industry should be celebrated – especially those who are using 3D printing to create, improve, innovate, and transform at high levels.
How did Ultimaker select this year’s list?
For 2020’s Ultimaker Innovators list, entries were nominated by colleagues from within Ultimaker. The final list was compiled from those nominees by Ultimaker’s Community and Content Marketing teams.
Who are Ultimaker Innovators?
The 2020 Ultimaker Innovators list includes individuals or groups using 3D printing to demonstrate any or all of the following:
- Innovation – Achieving new things with additive and distributed manufacturing, or advancing 3D printing technology itself
- Impact – Benefits for customers, colleagues, and communities – in particular positive environmental and social impact
- Inspiration – Encouraging adoption of 3D printing and nurturing the skills of others
- Diversity – Different cultures, global locations, and 3D printing applications
From architecture to manufacturing, from automotive to healthcare – and everywhere in between – they believe the 2020 Ultimaker Innovators list is a great way to send off the year – and start a new one.
