Why we launch this program

 

1. Promoting Gender Equality and Inclusivity in Technology

At Elegoo, we are committed to promoting gender equality and inclusivity in the technology sector, especially within the 3D printing industry. This dedication stems from our belief that every individual, regardless of gender, should have equal opportunities to thrive and contribute to the advancement of technology.

2. Inspiring and Empowering Future Female Innovators

We aim to inspire and empower future generations of female innovators by highlighting the accomplishments and contributions of women in 3D printing. By showcasing the achievements of women in this field, we hope to encourage more women to pursue careers in technology, thereby enriching the industry with diverse perspectives and talents.

3. Fostering Innovation Through Gender Diversity

We strongly believe that diversity in the workforce, especially gender diversity, is essential for fostering innovation and creating a more inclusive environment. By acknowledging and celebrating the valuable contributions of women in the 3D printing industry, we seek to foster a culture of diversity, inspiration, and innovation that benefits the industry as a whole.

Let's Delve into Her Stories

Her story: Anouk Wipprecht

Anouk is a pioneer in the emerging field of FashionTech, where fashion design converges with engineering, science, and interaction design. Her work redefines the boundaries of couture by integrating advanced technologies, creating garments that behave like intelligent systems interacting with their environment.

Anouk’s designs are nothing short of revolutionary—fusing aesthetics with functionality to craft technological couture that incorporates artificial intelligence and dynamic systems around the body. At the Formnext Exhibition this November, she unveiled her latest innovation: the Robotic Scale Dress, a wearable masterpiece powered by the ELEGOO Neptune 4 Pro.

Her story: Annika Mordelt

Annika is a Neuroscientist currently doing research for her PhD in the Netherlands (Radboudumc). She is focused on the immune system in the brain and developed novel human stem cell-based technologies to model immune cells and their interaction with the other cells in the brain.

Next to the bioengineering work in the lab, Annika uses 3D printing to show her brain cell models and let them come to life in 3D. This is super helpful for teaching and for people to immediately visualise what the models we are working with in the lab look like. Based on microscopy data, the z-stack images of a cell can be converted into code for the 3D printer.

I’m truly proud of the work I’m doing

This discovery of stem cell technology was awarded the Nobel prize in 2012. Because that means that we can now take – in a non-invasive way – cells from patients. And for us this is huge, right?

Try out new things in your career

Pair text with an image to focus on your chosen product, collection, or blog post. Add details on availability, style, or even provide a review.

You don't have to be less girly to be a scientist

But now growing up in the world of science, I actually realized that the things I like or do outside my job, they really don’t define the quality of my research.

Any advice for future women in STEM?

Be bold. Try out new things. It does not need to be perfect from the start.
