"Russia is still behind the countries - technological leaders in contributing to the world 3D printing market, but it has considerable potential for the development of these technologies.The global competitive struggle today is not so much to create new 3D printers or innovative materials, but to find market niches for application additive technologies.The international conference on additive technologies has become a good tradition. 

This year the event took place in Technopark Kalibr for the second time and, as we hope, it allowed the participants not only to exchange best practices, but also to outline the strategic plans, bringing the future one step further, " - said the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Kalibr JSC Mikhail Aleksandrovich Kogan.
