Materialise celebrated its 20th anniversary during its 2010 Materialise World Conference. For the first time, Materialise joined together all of their conferences into one event and this proved to be very successful. Despite the volcanic ash cloud that turned Belgium and most of Europe into a no-fly zone, the conference was well attended with over 200 participants each day. Because of the flight restrictions some of the speakers unfortunately couldn’t make it. Nevertheless the revised program received very positive feedback from the attendees. The conference proved to be an excellent opportunity to learn something new, network with international peers, discuss the latest innovations and take a look inside the heart of Materialise’s international headquarters.

Materialise wishes to thank all speakers and attendees that went the extra mile to make it to the event. Special thanks go out to those speakers who could not make it and kindly provided a video presentation and to the presenters that stepped in last minute as replacements.
