The Unconventionals

Pettis, CEO of the 3D printing company MakerBot. Imagine having the power to make creations in your mind's eye a reality - a reality you can hold in your own hands. I's not a plot from a new sci-fi film, it's the premise behind 3D printing powerhouse, Makerbot. Their desktop 3D printers have already completely changed the way creative professionals bridge the gap from vision to reality, and have been hailed on the cover of Wired Magazine as "The machine that will change the world." Founded in Brooklyn in 2009, CEO Bre Pettis and team have since harnessed the power of this futuristic technology in order to make it more widely available to those who simply love to just "make things." They've been featured in everything from The New York Times to The Colbert Report for being worldwide ambassadors of creativity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLCp6fgHLQw
