[3D Printing News] Ultimaker Participates in the 2017 JCI World Congress

The 2017 Junior Chamber International World Congress brought together young people, business leaders, government officials, and the community in the Netherlands.
This event, held in Amsterdam from November 6 to 10, 2017, provided opportunities for people from around the world to participate in personal and professional development, creating positive local and international change.

On November 7th, from 10:00 AM to 10:45 AM, Siert Wijnia, co-founder and CTO of Ultimaker, spoke to a large audience at a 3D printing and SDGS seminar, advocating for the continued impact of 3D printing.

Siert's presentation covered the past, present, and future of 3D printing technology, as well as the role of Ultimaker in this evolution.
Siert also discussed how Ultimaker has redefined the world of 3D printing with its commitment to reliability and accessibility, making it a favorite among businesses, educators, and professional users worldwide.

Following Siert's presentation, our service partner Distrinova arranged for each speaker to visit Makerversity, giving them the opportunity to design and 3D print objects using the Ultimaker 3D printer.

Ultimaker sees a rare opportunity to have a powerful impact on the future of education and employment.
