On February 17, 2025, the TCT WI3DP Innovator Award Day will take place, a virtual event recognizing the achievements of women in the 3D printing industry. Organized by the TCT Group and Women in 3D Printing (WI3DP), the event will feature inspiring talks and a panel discussion introducing the finalists for the TCT WI3DP Innovator Award 2025. The event will be streamed live on YouTube and LinkedIn.
The program includes contributions from four previous award winners, including Wai Yee Yeong, Program Director at the Singapore Centre in 3D Printing, and Alba Gonzalez Alvarez, Founder of Xcure Surgical. The presentations are aligned with the core themes of the TIPE conference – Technology, Industry, People and Economy – and highlight the role of women in shaping additive manufacturing.
“The TCT WI3DP Innovator Award Day is more than just a celebration of individual achievements—it’s a showcase of the transformative power of diversity and innovation within additive manufacturing. At Women in 3D Printing, we believe in amplifying the voices and contributions of women in our industry, and this event is a testament to the remarkable talent shaping the future of 3D printing”, says Toure.
“This award is the epitome of all this industry represents. Innovation, talent and excellence! The AM community employs some of the best that manufacturing has to offer and the fact the finalists are dynamic women just makes it that much more exciting!”, says Lisa Block, Board Director.
The TCT WI3DP Innovator Award, sponsored by EOS, recognizes women who are pushing the boundaries of technology through groundbreaking work and innovation. Finalists will be determined by a public vote and the winner will be announced on June 4, 2025 during the TCT Awards.
“The nominations for the TCT Women in 3D Printing Innovator Award never fail to bring to our attention the trailblazing – and often unsung – work being done by women inventors, researchers, adopters and advocators in AM. Every year, there’s at least one submission where I find myself asking ‘Why didn’t I know about this person!’,” said Laura Griffiths, TCT Head of Content. “This collaboration with Women in 3D Printing has always been about celebrating the achievements of women in the AM community. What better way to do that than by bringing together all of our previous award recipients to share their industry knowledge under the key themes of the TIPE 3D Printing Conference and welcoming our next wave of innovators.”
The event is an opportunity to learn from industry experts and hear their perspectives on 3D printing. Focusing on the topics of the TIPE conference, the Award Day highlights the achievements and visions of the participants and shows how diversity enriches additive manufacturing.
