"What we're really trying to accomplish is, providing another tool for one of these step changes. Something where we go from an expensive & manual process to one that's highly automated to enable the next generation of machines."

In this episode, we talk with Ryan Dunn the CEO of Mantis Composites.

Mantis Composites has developed a 5-axis, 3D printer for carbon fiber parts. In the development of this technology, they're helping usher in the next step change in materials innovation. Innovation that will enable the technologies of tomorrow to be built more efficiently and affordably — technologies like rockets, satellites, hyper-cars, and planes. 

In this episode, we talk about the step changes throughout history; Ryan's most anticipated technologies and their implications; and the role that government can play in helping foster the development of these frontier technologies.
