Are you an entrepreneur with an idea that you want to develop into a 3D prototype? Or perhaps you just want to create something? 3D printers are the tool of the future for prototyping, we’ve created an entirely new class of entrepreneur. At the 3D Print Shop we can give you advice on how you can go about materializing your idea. We give you the chance to print in 3D and we’ll even help you design your 3D model.

3D printers can be used to print many things, from everyday objects to prototypes, you can see your product through from an initial idea to a final production version. Large minimum orders are no longer necessary, with us the minimum order is 1.

This event is in the past.

On the weekend of the 26th April 2014 3D Printshopen organised Sweden's first 3D printing and prototyping competition which was held at MindPark in Helsingborg. The event was about 4 teams, getting 12 hours to solve a problem, find a business model and prototype the items which they had designed during the day. The problem which was only revealed on the morning of the event, was "The bicycle". They had to improve anything related to the bicycle, the rider or the environment that promotes cycling. The teams had to use 3D printing and get help from the technicians that were present to develop their gadgets or tools.

The four teams, selected randomly from the participants on the morning of the event, consisted of both students and entrepreneurs. Participants were from the entire Øresund region – as well multiple participants from a far afield as Göteborg and Jönköping.. Each team had one CAD designer assigned to them, and timed access to the 3D printers. An exciting atmosphere of team work, business development and creativity ensued.

Here are some videos of the event and below is the original invitation description of the competition.

Attention students, entrepreneurs, designers, visionaries!

We at 3D Printshopen together with MindPark are going to have a unique and free event we want you to join. On Saturday the 26th of April 2014 (09h00 - 21h30) we will be hosting a competition to solve an everyday design problem. There will be 4 teams comprised of business minded people, artists, students and non-students, and above all problem solvers.

We need 20 eager individuals, whether you're a student, not studying, entrepreneur or designer, whatever your strengths and weaknesses are your team needs you, you don't need to have any CAD or design skills. Not only will you come up with an idea to solve your problem, but you will also be able to use our 3D printers to make a prototype.

You will be tasked with solving an everyday design issue that you will be given the day of the competition. Depending on who you are you will be placed in a team of 2 students, 2 non-students, and a professional designer to help you visualize your solution making a team of 5. Using your collective intellects and our 3D printers you will have a functioning, physical prototype, by the end of the day.

The winning solution will be the one that best fulfills the following criteria.

1. Business appeal

2. Functional design

3. Innovative Idea

4. Aesthetic design

The grand prize is 1000 sek to each member of the winning team.
