Printact was founded in late-2013. The name is a combination of the two words "Printact = Print + Tactic" , which implies we promote 3D printing with tactics. We have a vision that everyone can learn and utilize digital making skills such as 3D printing, 3D scanning, laser cutting, and electronics DIY when they are given the suitable training and tools.
Therefore, our two main missions are, first, to develop more user-friendly software and hardware for 3D printing; and second, to provide a series of talks, tasting sessions, courses and workshops to educate the public on digital fabrication. These will enable us to equip people with both the necessary knowledge and tools to adapt to the latest technological revolution in manufacturing.
We are backed and incubated by Cyberport, TSSSU@HKU, Qianhai E-Hub and Houde and other prestigious angel investors in Hong Kong.
