United StatesFounded 2023

The nomination
Studio 3e8: the homepage
Studio 3e8 develops metal 3D printing technology designed for the desktop. The company's flagship product, the Mesa 1, combines a proprietary printing technology with integrated software, hardware, and materials to simplify metal 3D printing.
The Mesa 1 uses no lasers or binders, and eliminates the need for support removal or loose metal powder handling after printing. Users import a 3D model, slice it, and upload it to the system. The device deposits two materials from sealed powder cartridges—metal for the part and scaffold for structural support—then automatically sinters them into dense metal within an integrated furnace.
Studio 3e8 was founded in 2023 and grew from an attic to a garage before establishing itself at Greentown Labs in Somerville, Massachusetts. The company was selected for Harvard Innovation Labs' Launch Lab X accelerator.
