A “bottom-up” adoption of additive manufacturing often can only go so far, says EOS director of global application and consulting Güngör Kara. AM is so transformative that its impact ultimately extends beyond manufacturing and beyond a core group of adopters to bring change in the form of new opportunities to other parts of the organization as well. That is why a C-level commitment to advancing additive is valuable. Kara talks about this in the video, and also talks about supporting and keeping up momentum as the transformation proceeds.
