Events<\/a> around additive manufacturing are crucial for the sector, allowing many players and users of the technology to exchange and discover the latest market trends and developments in additive manufacturing<\/a>. Given the worldwide spread of COVID-19<\/a>, 3D printing events have been deeply affected and many have been postponed or even cancelled all over the world. This is why Link3D, Rapid + TCT, Aerodef & 3Dnatives are coming together to announce the industry\u2019s first 26.2 hour Digital Additive Manufacturing Marathon<\/em>. The online conference, #DAMM2020, will take place on April 27-28<\/strong>, with the goal of connecting the additive manufacturing industry globally in times of social distancing.<\/p>\n

Following the successful Digital Additive Manufacturing Conference organized by Link3D in March, #DAMM2020 will focus largely on bridging the gap between additive manufacturing communities throughout the world. Last month, 1,300 people and 40+ thought leaders from the additive manufacturing community came together in solidarity for two days of inspiration, knowledge, and virtual networking. The need to come together remains strong, which is why Link3D, Rapid + TCT, Aerodef & 3Dnatives are bringing #DAMM2020 to the industry at this point in time. The global event will be free<\/strong> and accessible to everyone across multiple time zones<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“It’s more important than ever to stay connected with the community and learn from each other’s struggles and successes to overcome these uncertain times.<\/em>” shares Shane Fox, CEO of Link3D. “Link3D\u2019s team is stepping up to play our role within the industry by virtually connecting people. We hope this will provide a platform where innovation can grow and problem solving emerges.<\/em>“<\/p>

RAPID + TCT, North America\u2019s largest and most influential additive manufacturing event having been postponed to April 2021, this conference will be a new opportunity to connect influential players together. Angela Szerlong, additive manufacturing industry manager for SME explains: \u201cSupporting the additive manufacturing industry is central to SME\u2019s mission of advancing manufacturing<\/em>. RAPID + TCT and AeroDef are committed to helping the additive manufacturing industry prosper and grow, and we are proud to support this initiative<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n
