Additive Manufacturing and the Future of Product Development

Join us for an interactive session that will explore the latest advancements in 3D printing and how they can help digitize supply chains and accelerate time to market for products.

We'll discuss topics such as design, prototyping, and industry innovation, as well as the future of additive manufacturing. Our focus will be on metal printing, plastic printing, and the technologies that enable new possibilities.
While we'll try to have a printer on site, we'll have plenty of samples showcasing different available technologies and use cases.

Our speaker and presenter is Paul Bierker, a designer and technology evangelist with extensive experience in the field. Our community partner, Allegheny Educational Systems, provides the right tech and services to education, research, and job training programs in PA, NY, NJ, and will be contributing to the conversation as well.

Stay for the thought-provoking question and answer session on the exciting potential of additive manufacturing!

From Ideas to Action: An Introduction to Design Thinking

You have a great idea. Now what?

Develop your idea into a successful reality using design thinking. Design thinking is a mindset, process and methods that focuses on the people you want to reach — understanding their behaviors, needs and motivations.

In this workshop, you'll get an introduction to design thinking, and learn how applying it can increase your chances of success as you develop your idea. Design thinking methods can help you identify your stakeholders, put yourself in the shoes of your potential customer, and understand how your product or service fits into their lives.

This will be a 90-minute hands-on experience, so come prepared to think, interact and experiment.
