White House Looks to Invest $200M in 3D Printing

The White House is looking to 3D printing as a means of both revolutionizing the American manufacturing industry, and also saving the states money.

The Administration is setting aside $200 million for a public-private initiative that will see three new advanced manufacturing centers built around the country, with universities and corporations bidding to host these centers.

The centers will be modeled on a 3D printing institute that was launched in Ohio last year, with funding support by the White House.
