Show Notes

We’re closing out our first season with three bonus episodes. In each of these bonus episodes, we check-in with our first three guests on the show, Greg Mulholland of Citrine Informatics, Dipanwita Das of Sorcero and Randy Altschuler of Xometry. Innovation is moving faster than ever, so we want to keep the pulse of the market and see how much progress our guests are making. It’s been a year since we first interviewed these companies, and each has had a banner year. 

In this episode, we catch up with Randy Altschuler of Xometry, a Manufacturing-as-a-Service platform. Randy was one of our first guests on M4Edge, and over the past year Xometry has experienced tremendous growth, has raised another important round of funding, has expanded its global footprint including with a new partnership with China’s Alibaba, and developed a new service to help its partners procure materials and parts more cheaply and efficiently. Randy talks us through what this means for Xometry, and how Manufacturing-as-a-Service is helping companies deal with the increased uncertainty
and more frequent shocks that characterize the global environment—and how hopefully it will help address climate change through more efficient supply chains. 

Enjoy the episode, Happy holidays and ... Please write us a review!
