“Additive manufacturing” or “3D printing” is a process of manufacturing real objects, by using a 3D-printer. The 3D-printer “prints” or builds materials like plastics, metals or ceramics by spraying very small layers on top of each other with a laser.

This new technique will not only affect our society in many different ways, it will also have a profound, maybe even shattering effect on Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and their role in business models.

3D-printing will revolutionize end-product design, by handing over control of the design to the user, who will also be the manufacturer. Anybody, will be able to design their own product and to print it immediately : sunglasses, shoes, jewelry, ….

Come and discover this new technology and get ideas for web applications or for new businesses.

You will able to watch demos from 3D printers!
