A leading sustainable additive revolution – LightForce

Why did AM Ventures choose to invest in this company?

Personalized health care is one of the major potentials that we see in additive manufacturing. Alfred and his team have created a completely new and, in all ways, improved kind of dental braces by leveraging the potential of ceramic 3D printing. This amazing invention in in combination with a very strong team line-up convinced us to invest.

What are your expectations for this company in the coming years?

Regarding the future, I think it is fair to say that Lightforce Orthodontics has the potential to be the new default solution for braces globally.
