The 10th iteration of the Additive Manufacturing Strategies (AMS X) business conference will take place in New York City from February 23-25, 2027, with a focus on business, investment, and manufacturing economics.
Additive Manufacturing Strategies (AMS X), a significant business conference for the additive manufacturing (AM) industry, is set to hold its 10th event in New York City from February 23-25, 2027. Co-produced by Additive Manufacturing Research and 3DPrint.com, the conference has evolved from its origins in healthcare AM to encompass broader topics of business, investment, and manufacturing economics.
The agenda for AMS X highlights a strong business focus, with sessions dedicated to industry data and forecasts, AM workforce development, and globalization. "Printing Money Live" will feature panels on capital strategies for US reindustrialization, mergers and acquisitions, and capital markets. The second day will conclude with a session on AM investment strategies.
A notable feature will be the CEO Roundtable, now divided into two panels. The first will include Kevin Kassekert (VulcanForms), Sam O’Leary (Nikon SLM Solutions AG), and Joe Calmese (ADDMAN). The second panel will feature Yoav Zeif (Stratasys), Marie Langer (EOS), and Brigitte de Vet-Veithen (Materialise).
Keynote speakers for AMS X include Yoav Zeif, who will deliver the main conference keynote. Marie Langer and Glynn Fletcher (EOS Group) will present a keynote to open the second day, while Alex Monino (HP) will present another keynote later that day. Arno Held (AM Ventures) will deliver the opening keynote for the AM Investment Strategies session.
AM Ventures will host the opening networking reception, which will be split into two parts, at the end of the first and second days. An evening mixer and a farewell happy hour are also scheduled. The full agenda is subject to change as the event date approaches.
AMS X underscores the increasing maturity of the AM industry, shifting focus towards business strategy, investment, and economic impact. The participation of CEOs from major players like Stratasys, EOS, and Nikon SLM Solutions indicates a strong emphasis on market dynamics and corporate strategy. This aligns with the broader industry trend of integrating AM into mainstream manufacturing and supply chains, vital for sectors like aerospace and defense seeking advanced, localized production capabilities.
