September 17, 2018

All3DP, operator of a leading global Internet platform for 3D printing, has successfully completed a current financing round in the A2 Series Closing. The existing investors – including Bayern Kapital, HTGF and Deutsche Balaton AG – maintain on board. The new round will be led by Bayern Kapital with two new Business Angels from the BayStartUP investor network. All3DP operates the online magazine All3DP.com, which informs about the possibilities of 3D printing in the consumer and business segments. Via its own price comparison platform, All3DP also connects its users to 3D printing service providers.

All3DP operates in a rapidly expanding and highly dynamic 3D printing market with an annual doubling of the number of desktop 3D printers sold. The platform’s customers come from all continents, but mainly from North America and Europe. The just closed financing round enables the company to keep pace with the strong market growth and to expand its leading position. With its English-language content, All3DP is already the international market leader in the 3D printing segment. More than 800,000 users visit the All3DP.com website every month, 40% of them from North America.

Dr. Carsten Rudolph, Managing Director of BayStartUP: “With the content platform, All3DP has developed an interesting sales channel to position its product globally with the best reach out. The team knows its market and is able to convince with very good growth figures”.

Mathias Plica, co-founder and managing director of All3DP: “From Munich’s Westend, we have set up an offer with an international team that has a global footprint. With the new capital, we want to expand this even further. In the preliminary phase of the financing round, BayStartUP’s network has significantly deepened the confidence in our new investors”.
