I have a bit of a unique opportunity here that I thought I'd throw

I have a bit of a unique opportunity here that I thought I’d throw out to this community. I am posing 6 questions to our 6 keynote speakers at this year’s TCT Show for the next edition of the magazine. The 6 questions have to be the same to all 6 speakers so these are more general questions about the state of #3DPrinting . The six speakers are Al Siblani CEO of EnvisionTEC, Scott Schiller of HP, Max Lobovsky CEO of Formlabs, Conor MacCormack CEO of Mcor, Andy Middleton President of Stratasys and industry consultant Todd Grimm.

If you had a question that you could ask all of them at once what would it be?

What is stopping them from putting more resources into a partnership towards making simple 3D printers for average consumers: the longer term ROI or the fear that since there are open source options out there it’s more difficult to capitalize on their “branded” products?
