Lucideon hosted this workshop, which was organized in collaboration with the UK Chapter of the American Ceramic Society.  It took place on 16 May 2019 at Lucideon's headquarters in Stoke-on-Trent. The workshop focused on Ceramic Additive Manufacturing in which by fostering knowledge exchange, academics, businesses and government discussed the latest developments and opportunities in additive manufacturing, including a round table discussion about how the interaction between academia and businesses could speed up innovative solutions and route them to market.

The context of this workshop linked well with the recently announced UK Government priority from its modern Industrial Strategy in manufacturing:

• Made Smarter challenge about enhancing performance and productivity of UK manufacturers by digital technologies implementation, in which additive manufacturing is one of the 5 areas targeted to have an impact in manufacturing the future.

The workshop included cutting edge presentations from leading figures in academia and business, with case studies on how additive manufacturing is being, and could be used, to bring about performance and cost benefits.

Early career researchers also had the opportunity to present their recent developments to manufacturers in a poster session and let them know about their ideas for the future of the manufacturing sector. In addition, attendees had the opportunity to take part in a tour of Lucideon's facilities.
