FOOTPRINT3D (see the official website here) looks to bridge the gap between the footwear industry and digital manufacturing. Set in the beautiful city of Barcelona at Industrial Akroll (Carrer de Corominas, 22, 08902 L’Hospitalet de Llobregat), FOOTPRINT3D aims to connect suppliers, manufacturers, and tech leaders with forward-thinking brands and designers to create real solutions and drive innovation within the industry.

The event’s primary purpose is to provide a platform for partners to showcase their cutting-edge technologies and share insights into groundbreaking advancements in the field.
