The Lattice Services team is back in France after a particularly fruitful week in the United States: first in New York, then in Boston. The trip was marked by inspiring meetings, productive discussions and promising prospects for the future.

New York: a visit to Columbia University

Our first stop took us to New York, where we had the privilege of visiting the Carroll Laboratories for Orthopaedic Surgery at Columbia University.

We would like to extend our warmest thanks to Nadeen, Clark, Elyse, Lara and Maho for their exceptional hospitality and for showing us around their impressive research facilities.

This meeting marked the official launch of a particularly exciting project. Following several years of research and development carried out by the teams at Columbia, Lattice Services is now stepping in to support the industrialisation phase and prepare for the transition to larger-scale manufacturing.

Playing a part in this transition from academic innovation to industrial production is at the heart of our mission. We are proud of the trust placed in us by such prestigious partners.

Boston: an immersion experience at RAPID + TCT

Notre voyage s’est poursuivi à Boston à l’occasion du salon RAPID + TCT, rendez-vous incontournable de l’écosystème mondial de la fabrication additive.

Comme chaque année, cet événement représente une excellente opportunité de prendre le pouls du marché, de découvrir les dernières innovations technologiques et d’échanger directement avec les acteurs qui façonnent l’avenir de l’industrie.

Nous avons eu le plaisir de retrouver plusieurs de nos partenaires et fournisseurs, mais également de rencontrer de nombreux professionnels partageant la même volonté d’accélérer l’innovation et l’adoption des technologies additives. Un grand merci également à 3devo pour avoir mis en avant certains de nos projets durant l’événement.

Parmi les temps forts du salon, l’espace Academic Row a particulièrement retenu notre attention. Collaborant régulièrement avec des universités et des centres de recherche, nous avons apprécié les discussions avec des chercheurs et des équipes académiques qui développent aujourd’hui les innovations de demain.

Projects, encounters… and a culinary verdict

Beyond the meetings, technical discussions and opportunities for collaboration, this trip has once again confirmed the importance of face-to-face meetings in driving projects forward and strengthening partnerships.

And since a field trip must also include some local exploration, we can now confirm one key point: Boston’s lobster rolls fully live up to their reputation. The team’s unanimous verdict: 10/10.

We would like to thank everyone we met during this trip and look forward to continuing these collaborations in the coming months.
