Expanding into the global 3D printing market: All3DP successfully closes Series A round

October 4, 2016

All3DP GmbH, operator of a fast growing English-language Internet platform for 3D printing, has completed seven-figure Series A financing round. All3DP publishes an online magazine at All3DP.com that familiarizes broad target groups from the consumer and small business segment with 3D printing and connects users with leading 3D printing service providers. The investors of the current financing round include Deutsche Balaton AG, Bayern Kapital, High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF) and four private investors.

All3DP is opening up the fast-growing emerging 3D printing market to consumers and small businesses. Just 21 months after its start-up, the company has already taken a leading role in the international market. The Munich-based startup reaches over 280,000 visitors per month (unique visitors, according to Google Analytics) with its compelling editorial content. In addition, the 3D Printing Price Comparison listing the prices of leading 3D printing service providers on All3DP.com allows users to order 3D printable products online and have them delivered almost anywhere in the world.

All3DP plans on using the capital raised to expand the coverage of the online platform and the e-commerce capabilities. Mathias Plica, Co-Founder and CEO of All3DP GmbH: “Every day at work, we experience how more and more people around the world are getting excited about 3D printing. We want to convey the wealth of possibilities that 3D printing has to offer and help our users to get quick and easy access to the 3D printed products of their choice”.

Ruth Cremer, Investment Manager at High-Tech Gründerfonds: “With their growth strategy, All3DP is on the right path to achieving market leadership with the funding from the current financing round and facilitating access to 3D printed products for everyone”.

Dr. Georg Ried, one of two managing directors at Bayern Kapital, one of the major investors: “All3DP has accomplished an amazing growth in reach in the young, innovative 3D printing market solely through its editorial content. With the Series A round, All3DP is now able to further develop its global market leadership”.
