TCT WOMEN IN 3D PRINTING INNOVATOR AWARD 2023


TCT are pleased to have collaborated with Women in 3D Printing for the third year to present the TCT Women in 3D Printing Innovator Award. This award recognises women who are at the pinnacle of their profession, leading the charge in developing, enhancing and innovating within the 3D printing and additive manufacturing world.

At the end of 2022 we invited you – the 3D printing community – to put forward your nominations for entries for the 2023 award.  We received a record number of nominations of incredible women innovating in the field, and each of the nominees were then considered on individual merit by WI3DP and TCT who had the difficult task of whittling them down to a list of finalists.

The ultimate winner was decided by a public vote, and we were thrilled that Elena Lopez, Regional Director for Women in 3D Printing E.M.E.A, could join us to announce the winner at the TCT Awards ceremony on 7th June 2023.  Congratulations to our Winner for 2023 - Alba Gonzalez Alvarez!
