What used to be known as rapid prototyping is slowly becoming a long-term strategy for the manufacturing industry. Brands and manufacturers who integrate additive manufacturing (AM) based on solutions for pain points are much more likely to leverage additive’s unique design language capabilities.
To discuss additive’s endless possibilities, Host Fabian Alefeld speaks with the Founder and Chief Operating Officer (COO) of SNL Creative Inc., Shawn Zindroski. With over three decades in the industry, Shawn reflects on innovations that shaped his career and the AM projects that will shape the future of manufacturing. The conversation is an in-depth exploration of growth strategies, and how AM can impact industries, individuals, and brands.
