    Alex and Jordan profile Creality, the Shenzhen company whose cheap, hackable Ender-3 put 3D printers on millions of desks. They trace the line from the 2014 CR-3 to high-speed K series machines, a nozzle-changing printer called KliTek, a filament recycler, an e-commerce platform, and the signals that Creality wants to go public.

    Materialise: The Company That Bet on Software Before Anyone Knew Software Was the Bet

    Alex and Jordan profile Materialise, the Belgian veteran that decided decades ago that the money in 3D printing wasn't in printers.
