RAPID + TCT
Call for speakers launch for RAPID + TCT 2025
RAPID + TCT, North America’s largest additive manufacturing and industrial 3D printing event, has launched the call for papers for its 2025 conference.
Taking place in Detroit on April 8-10th, organisers SME and Rapid News Publications, owner of the TCT Group, are seeking speakers across a range of industries and 3D technology disciplines, including 3D scanning and metrology.
The event will be co-located alongside two vertical focused events, World Congress Experience (WCX) and AeroDef Manufacturing. WCX is produced by SAE International and focuses on advanced mobility, while AeroDef Manufacturing, presented by SME, concentrates on developments within the aerospace and defense industry.
By joining these events, organisers say RAPID + TCT will 'reach new manufacturing professionals with the transformational possibilities of AM' and create opportunities for increased information exchange.
“The 2025 event will present a great opportunity to share ideas and advances with an audience that goes far beyond the AM community, so we’re excited to announce our call for speakers,” said Angie Szerlong, group director – AM Series at SME. “Whether you’re presenting or just planning to attend, this will be an event you won’t want to miss.”
The conference will offer specialised tracks focusing on industries such as automotive, aerospace, defense, medical applications, energy and more.
Interested speakers are now invited to submit their abstracts which will be reviewed by RAPID + TCT Event Advisors, a panel of top technical experts representing the manufacturing industry, academic institutions and government agencies.
Abstracts can be submitted here until October 18, 2024.
