Dr. Mike Vasquez usually the host of this podcast and is the founder of two 3D Printing companies. He started his first company, 3 Degrees, in 2013 and since then has helped both global companies and family-run businesses navigate the challenges and opportunities of 3D Printing. In talking with hundreds of companies, he kept seeing a need for a tracking software customized to this space. He couldn't find a solution that did what he thought was necessary, so instead, he built one and started his second company, TraceAM. In celebration of the 50th episode of this podcast, he agreed to let me take over the mic and ask the questions. You'll learn what he thinks is next for 3D printing, how his love of sports was a catalyst for his career and what his experience has been as an entrepreneur.
