3DPrinting@home coming to Japan's CREATEC Conference in October

[Eddie]

For those of you living in or planning to visit Japan in October, MecklerMedia will be producting the 3DPrinting@home segment of CREATEC Japan 2015. With over 150,000 attendees expected, the show should certainly help put 3D printing on the map even moreso than it currently is in Japan.

you know, it makes you wonder why there aren't more japanese startups and printers around.
Japan and technology go together like soy sauce and sushi.

So where are all the big japanese AM tech companies ?

Or like a lot of japanese tech - are they just keeping it to themselves ?

I still have a 10 year old linux organiser I had to import from japan. It's still the best thing for the job I've ever seen and trying to find another portable device that can handle in excess of 2000 contacts is still proving difficult.

So where is all the japanese 3d tech ?
