We will disrupt the manufacturing industry by introducing a more cost effective and energy efficient alternative to traditional manufacturing methods. With our expertise from working in CI additive, the team at the hopeful to launch startup The N3xt Dimension is hoping to create a modular printer that will fit any customer's need at a price that will encourage more companies to use LFAM in their normal production. No other company has designed a LFAM printer from the ground up with the intent to be an exact fit for a customer's print needs.

A new menstrual cup design that simplifies insertion and removal, as well as provides a more comfortable and less daunting experience for users while on-the-go.   My idea is to use the mechanics of an umbrella to develop a cup using medical-grade silicone of varying densities to eliminate the need for folding the cup for insertion and the necessity of finger insertion to break the suction for removal.
