NEW: Start-Up Launchpad at AMUGexpo

Sponsored by Toyota Production Engineering

New, innovative companies in the additive manufacturing space often go unnoticed in our ever-changing, dynamic industry. Lacking the resources to get the word out, industry professionals may be unaware of their latest developments and emerging technologies.

New for 2025, AMUG is bringing the Start-up Launchpad to the AMUGexpo to enable AMUG Conference attendees to discover a few of these new players. The launchpad is made possible through the generous support of Toyota Production Engineering.

With Toyota’s support, AMUG is inviting up to 10 start-up companies to join us during the AMUGexpo at a reduced rate. Our goal is to bring their fresh ideas and new approaches to the expo floor so that you can discover and investigate the solutions that these start-ups offer.

Showcasing innovative solutions to the additive user community.

Open to all types of additive solutions (hardware, materials, software, services, and more), the Start-up Launchpad provides AMUG Conference attendees with an early look at the emerging technologies in the industry.

With the invitation for start-ups to participate, AMUG Conference attendees can leverage the AMUGexpo to stay at the forefront of industry trends, discover new partnerships, and engage with the next generation of additive manufacturing solutions. These start-ups will be joined by over 100 established additive companies that are supporting AMUG 2025 as sponsors and exhibitors.

To make sure that the innovative solutions fit the needs of AMUG Conference attendees, a committee will review applications to select the most deserving ones.

Join us at AMUG 2025 to ignite innovation and growth within the additive manufacturing industry through conversations and demonstrations in the Start-up Launchpad.

  • See the emerging technologies.
  • Discuss the implications and considerations.
  • Explore new solutions.
  • Explore collaboration potential.
  • Build relationships with entrepreneurs.
