Over the course of the 3-day education conference Makers Empire showed schools how easy it was to get started utilizing 3D printing with Makers Empire.

“It was fantastic to meet and talk to dedicated teachers from across USA, Canada, Mexico and even Cost Rica! It was even more inspiring that they were attending the ISTE conference right at the beginning of their summer holidays – how is that for commitment! Also lovely to see some familiar faces from our schools in New York too.” Lap Leung, co-founder Makers Empire, said.

“We had teachers (and students!) come by to see how they can plan their first class with our lesson plans, tried first hand how easy it was to design with our easy to use design tools, then how they can view and download ALL of their students designs from the one place via our teachers portal!”
