Hong Kong Innovation & Technology Fair
Last Saturday, Koln 3D took part in the Hong Kong Innovation & Technology Fair, alongside the Hong Kong 3D Printing Association (HK3DPA).
It was a refreshing experience for us to exhibit at a local sports ground, openly accessible to the general public, rather than the usual air-conditioned halls. It has been a great opportunity to connect with the community and showcase the practical applications of 3D printing in medicine and everyday life.
Innotech Industry x School Network Visit
Over the past week, we were happy to host students from the Tuen Mun Children and Youth Integrated Services Centre and Hong Kong Chinese Women's Club College for their field trips, organized as part of the Innotech Industry x School Network Visit programme.
The students explored our manufacturing site, gaining a glimpse into the field of orthopaedics and its applications in 3D printing, while our colleagues shared some their own educational journeys and work experiences, providing unique perspectives in career planning.
Koln 3D is incredibly grateful to take part in the programme and collaborate with other esteemed organizations and educational institutions. Together, we are committed to fostering innovation, and shaping a brighter future for our next generation.
CDIA Y-We ceremony
Koln 3D is delighted to continue being part of the Y-We work placement programme created by the Career Development Initiative Alliance (CDIA) in the upcoming year.
We are grateful for the tremendous support from CDIA and the Labour and Welfare Bureau (LWB) and will continue to contribute to this valuable initiative, empowering young individuals hailing from underprivileged backgrounds.
Tatler Hong Kong interview
We are featured in Tatler's November edition of the "Made in Hong Kong" stories.
Edmond discusses his transition from plastic moulding to metal additive manufacturing and the subsequent shift in Koln 3D's focus towards highly specialized medical products. He reflects on the initial hurdles of importing machinery and finding suitable locations for the 3D printers, while sharing his aspirations for local and global R&D projects in the future.

MARS Centre visits
This week, we had the pleasure of hosting visitors from Qingdao Municipal Hospital and Hong Kong Mould & Die Council (A Federation of Hong Kong Industries Council).
It was a wonderful experience to meet and exchange ideas with medical professionals and industry experts from China and #ASEAN countries. We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead as we continue to work together towards common goals.
