which will take place March 1-3, in Boston, MA. Objet will also be participating in a
number of other sessions during the meeting.
The ACSA workshop will allow attendees to develop breakthrough designs, from concept
to 3D model completion, in just 48 hours. Their 3D models will then be displayed at the
ACSA Annual Meeting - a special exhibit in honor of ACSA's centennial annual meeting.
Gilad Gans, Executive Vice President for Objet, says: "We are thrilled to have this
collaboration with ACSA and MIT as part of Objet's long-standing commitment to enabling
educational excellence. Objet will be presenting its advanced 3D printing and rapid
prototyping capabilities for America's leading architectural professors and students. For

experience of our unique multi-material 3D printing capability in an intensive 2 day
seminar."
Also presenting at ACSA will be Neri Oxman, Assistant Professor at MIT, who will be
describing her work 'Design by Nature' and how Objet Connex multi-material technology
helps to bring her complex design concepts to life.
Objet's breakthrough Connex multi-material technology is already being used in leading
universities, research institutions and Fortune 500 companies across the United States and
Europe.
Objet is working in collaboration with MIT, ACSA and ACADIA (the Association for
Computer Aided Design in Architecture) to provide architectural faculty and students with
numerous opportunities to explore and learn about how digital technologies, in particular
