Chief Data Officers are a growing tribe, but higher strategic focus is required: Gartner survey

Data is gaining more importance in the organisation and there have even been discussions on whether the value of data should be considered when doing the valuation of companies for M&A and IPOs. The role of the Chief Data Officer (CDO) is also gaining in importance. However, a survey by Gartner reveals that while CDOs and their Data Analytics (DA) teams are focusing on the right priorities, they are yet to achieve the best balance of their various responsibilities to deliver superior organisational performance.

‘We want to make 3D printing inclusive, sustainable and scalable’

3D printing has been around since 1986 when Stereolithography was first invented. Since then, the technology has evolved a lot. However, the technology has largely been in the domain of experts, and many people didn’t have access to 3D printers. The reason is that there’s a lot of complexity attached to the 3D printer as well as the pre- and post-processing of the part. That complexity creates the need for expertise and specialisation. It also creates the need for facilities where the printers are kept away from users.

RIZE is a 3D printer manufacturer with an ambitious goal: to make industrial 3D printing inclusive, sustainable and scalable. Founded in 2014, the Boston-based company has developed its proprietary Augmented Deposition technology, designed to enable the production of high-quality, digitally augmented 3D-printed parts.

In an e-mail interview with DIGITAL CREED, Varun Gadhok, Sales Director, Asia Pacific, RIZE Inc outlines the company’s vision and explains how Augmented Deposition Technology can solve problems encountered in 3D printing.
