The ability to build a 3D printing powered business is very new and we are proud that it is our community at Shapeways who are leading the way in developing best practices for these creative, small business owners. To further support and celebrate our shop owners we organized our first ever Small Business Bootcamp on October 24th, 2014 in New York City. It was a day of entrepreneurial and design inspiration that offered concrete advice on business planning, marketing and designing 3D printed products from Shapeways shop owners with support from Shapeways staff members.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-19014\" alt=\"3D printing small business conference\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-10-625x408.jpg\" width=\"625\" height=\"408\" data-wp-pid=\"19014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-10-625x408.jpg 625w, https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-10-1024x668.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-10-400x261.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-10-800x522.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-10.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>3D printing offers the opportunity of mass customization and making products you want, not just what is available.

He was followed by Susan Taing, founder of <a href=\"http:\/\/bhold.co\/\" target=\"_blank\">bhold<\/a>, who discussed her process of product development and iteration and how to choose a &#8220;winning&#8221; product. Melissa Ng, of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/shops\/lumecluster\" target=\"_blank\">Lumecluster<\/a>, discussed her business planning process and how she finds and shares inspiration as an entrepreneur.

In the spirit of the day, Bathsheba remarked, \u201cThe plain object, or the art, doesn\u2019t sell itself \u2013 it\u2019s the aura around it. 3D printing helps that, although it was easier 10 years ago. It\u2019s starting to go away.&#8221; This also raises a challenge: as 3D printing becomes more widespread, what new challenges will arise for small business owners?<\/p>\n<p>What do you think will the future of 3D printed business will hold? We plan to make this conference an annual event and look forward to your suggestions of what additional topics you would like to cover or delve into more deeply, and speakers you would like to hear from.<\/p>\n<p>If you are in New York and would like to talk more about the small business of the future and how new technology is empowering small business owners, please join us for a <strong>Small Business Saturday Brunch at Wix Lounge on Saturday November 29 from 1 to 2:30 pm<\/strong>.
