The 3D printing industry is in a state of constant flux and development. With the market set to expand by 17.5% over the next seven years, the career opportunities for both men and women are broad and far reaching. However, for years the tech field at large has been mostly dominated by men. Indeed, with only 13% of the 3D printing workforce being female, it’s clear we still have some way to go. But, we are getting there.
At the end of 2017, robotic history was made. Two years after the challenge was posed, the world’s first giant robot duel took place in September. And, in case you missed it, I’m breaking it down.
