3D COLLAB AWARD
The 3D COLLAB AWARD rewards the best customer-supplier collaboration on an industrial project involving additive manufacturing.
Each year, a large number of projects are presented to a jury of experts, who make an initial selection. The companies involved in the shortlisted projects are then invited to present their projects at an Awards Ceremony in the conference room, after which the overall winner is announced.
Find out more below about all the winning projects since the creation of the 3D COLLAB AWARD at 3D PRINT Lyon.
3D COLLAB AWARD 2024
The 3D COLLAB AWARD 2024 rewarded the best customer-supplier collaboration for an industrial part incorporating additive manufacturing. The Jury rewarded not one, but three companies: POLLEN AM and LYNXTER unanimously came out on top and tied for first place. POLLEN AM came out on top with B2BONE, 3D-printed bone substitutes developed in collaboration with Dr Hocquet. LYNXTER, in collaboration with INCXNNUE, created a surprise with silicone and textile 3D printing. Their flagship handbags will soon appear in a Netflix production. VOLUMIC 3D, for its part, won the "Coup de Coeur" prize for its exoskeleton, revolutionising mobility for people with motor disabilities.
