The two-day event will deliver an agenda filled with discussions on the priority needs and initiatives to ensure the U.S. remains a global manufacturing leader. Featured keynote speakers include Aisha Haynes, Ph.D., principal director for Advanced Materials, Office of the Under Secretary of Defense; David Beck, principal, Space Industrial Base at U.S. Space Force; Terry Wohlers, head of Advisory Services and Market Intelligence at Wohlers Associates, Powered by ASTM International; and Mark D.

The event will offer panel discussions with industry experts who will focus on insights and growth opportunities in the AM technology, workforce development, and ecosystem pillars. As in past years, America Makes will also announce new recipients of the Distinguished Collaborator and Ambassador awards.
