European General Manager at Formlabs, Michael Sorkin, talks to TCT about the brand's acquisition of the 3D printing community Pinshape and how a strategic partnership with Autodesk will improve the 3D printing eco-system.
Since launching on Kickstarter some four years ago the company has continued to expand into a professional operation installing printers in dental labs, jewellery workshops and on engineers' desktops across the globe.
Formlabs acquired the 3D printing community Pinshape just as it was about to close down spotting an opportunity to grab a community of dedicated designers and makers in the aim to grow it.
