3D Printing Conventions and Conferences

General tech events, like CES in Las Vegas or GITEX in Dubai, are essentially global conventions. They draw together businessmen, engineers and the curious from all over the world. At such conventions and associated conferences, the real-life experience exchange in technology innovation takes place.

With the 3D printing industry going strong in the past two decades, we see more and more AM manufacturers taking part in such conventions and conferences.

Meetups at 3D Printing Events

Every community has its own leaders and celebrities. So does 3D printing community. It is a good chance to meet a YouTuber, for example, whose channel you are subscribed to and following most of the tutorials, reviews or other entertaining videos. In some cases, you can get a sticker or a selfy picture with them.

What to do if you are unable to visit an event? No worries, the dedicated 3D printing community members often share their experience with others. You can follow them on social media such as Twitter or YouTube where they often share it live.

If you are unable to watch a video but want to be updated live, then we would recommend following a particular hashtag on Twitter on Instagram like #CES23, #TCT3Sixty, #ERRF, etc.
