More Details Released for Inside 3D Printing, RoboUniverse and Virtual Reality Summit in Seoul

It’s only been a week since Inside 3D Printing New York concluded, but it’s already time to think about what’s coming next. May will see I3DP conferences in both Sydney and Paris, and now Rising Media, Inc. has released new details about Inside 3D Printing Seoul along with RoboUniverse Conference & Expo and the Virtual Reality Summit, which will all be taking place from June 22-24 at the Korea International Exhibition & Convention Center (KINTEX).

This is the first year that Seoul will host the newly established Virtual Reality Summit, while RoboUniverse will be returning to the city for the second time. Inside 3D Printing will be returning for the third year, and Rising Media released some details earlier this month about the upcoming conference, but a lot more has been solidified in that short period of time.

In addition to keynote speakers MakerBot CEO Jonathan Jaglom and Wohlers Associates’ Terry Wolhers, keynotes will also be delivered by Tyler Benster, General Partner at Asimov Ventures, and Nikolai Zaepernick, Vice President, Head of Strategy and Business Development at EOS.

Within the conference’s vertical tracks focusing on business, manufacturing, medical and metal 3D printing, sessions and talks will be heavy on bioprinting and intellectual property issues, along with the latest research and opinion on the current and future state of 3D printing in manufacturing. Don’t forget about some of the central events, either: Inside 3D Printing Startup Pitch, where young 3D printing companies will compete for a KRW 5,000,000 convertible SAFE from Asimov Ventures, and the 3D Print Design Show co-produced by Digital Hands.
