Editor-in-chief at 3D Printing Industry at 3D Printing Industry

Level: LEVEL 01 (12 mo pts: 0 pts)
Lifetime points: 161 pts
IN BRIEF: Covering additive manufacturing and 3D printing since 2012, I combine my background in finance and economics with almost two decades of vocational experience to provide critical insight, analysis and market intelligence.
MORE DETAIL: As a researcher and analyst I believe sharing ideas and in depth discussion is a vital step in revealing macro trends, or getting to the big picture.
My interests have always been diverse and range from engineering technology to international financial markets and sustainable agriculture. My early career as a Chartered Accountant gave me the opportunity to act as primarily point of contact during audit fieldwork. Interaction with everyone from seasoned CEO's to apprentices taught me the value of combining technical accounting knowledge with softer skills to fully understand an enterprise.
Since then I’ve worked with businesses ranging from multinational investment banks to patent attorneys with fewer than 10 partners. I have experience in industries such as film financing and production, emerging forms of agriculture and energy generation, semiconductor solutions for decentralized networks, cryptocurrencies, and innovative mobile applications from China to Canada and the Middle East to Europe or the U.S.
I divide my time between consultancy work and writing books and magazine articles. At the moment I’m working on my 3rd book about 3D printing, also I’m a regular writer for 3DP publications and am often invited to speak at conferences on a range of topics. Recently I’ve given presentations on nano-materials and graphene in China, spoken about 3D printing and food at SXSW and will be delivering a presentation on the remarkable field of material topology and rare earth metals later in the year.
I'm always keen to discuss areas such as 3D printing, automation, Industry 4.0, or the digital economy and how macro or micro trends shape society or the economy.
