After seeing the design potential and talent in our community, we knew there had to be more people who would appreciate and value your work. Since then, our marketplace has matured into an entrepreneurial ecosystem of Shop Owners. Everyday we work hard to give you the tools and the exposure that you need and deserve to build your 3D Printing business.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Shop Owner community has doubled over the last 15 months!<\/strong>\u00a0When I started working at Shapeways in May of 2013, we were just crossing the 10,000 Shops mark; to think we&#8217;re now over 20,000 is incredible. It&#8217;s thrilling to see more and more artists, designers and entrepreneurs making money off sharing their 3D printed creations with the world.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations! Pat your self on the back!
