Based on these agreements, we intend to extend our reach and continue to build meaningful, and mutually beneficial, relationships with leading 3D printer manufacturers, enterprise end-users, Research & Development organizations and AM software manufacturers. It's an exciting time and I look forward to providing a comprehensive update on our progress in our year-end conference call in March," concluded Ruport.
