Events Details

The 3D printing revolution comes to Doha!

Ever imagined your bones, jewels, shoes, cars, blood vessels, buildings and even your food coming from a printer? It’s happening! This small exhibition introduces you to the universe of 3D printing. Young Dutch designers Mark brand and Ralph Zoontjens designed some pieces for the occasion, as did other graduates and students from VCU Qatar and Texas A&M Qatar.

Printing your unique designs anywhere, anytime, any shape and colour you want. And lowering transportation costs and waste material. Let’s start 3D mania in Qatar! What would you like to be printed?
