Someone please pinch me - I can hardly believe it!
Women in 3D Printing officially launched 10 years ago, almost to the day!🎉
As I sit here reflecting on this incredible milestone, I’m filled with so much pride, gratitude, and honestly, a bit of disbelief. What started as a little blog I threw together 10 years ago has grown into something beyond anything I could have imagined. 🚀
Today, Women in 3D Printing is a global movement, a vibrant community of changemakers, and a powerful platform that champions diversity, empowerment, and innovation in the #3Dprinting industry.
✨ But none of this would have been possible without the incredible people who’ve been part of this journey:
To all the Board Directors I’ve been so lucky to work with over the years: Dana McCallum, Sarah Goehrke, Christina Perla, Janet Kar, Kristin Mulherin, Lisa D. Block,
To our amazing Advisory Board: Terry Wohlers, SJ Jones, Katie Weimer, Dr. Addy Olubamiji, Mina Lee, Dr. Melissa Orme, Andrew Allshorn (AMUG 🦕), Maddie Frank, MBA!
And to our team of over 200 ambassadors across the world, past and present—you’ve been the heartbeat of Women in 3D Printing, and your dedication and hard work have made all the difference.
I’m also so grateful for the incredible people—our community, partners, and supporters—who’ve helped us reach this milestone. You’ve all played a part in shaping this journey, and I’m endlessly thankful.
Here’s to 10 amazing years of growth, innovation, and connection—and to the next chapter! I can’t wait to see what the future holds for all of us. 💖
