#110 Hubs CEO Alex Cappy on decentralised manufacturing, quality assurance & more

Hubs is an online manufacturing platform that was founded in 2013 and boasts a range of services that span 3D printing, CNC machining, injection moulding and sheet metal fabrication services. Through its global manufacturing network of suppliers, it has long been an advocate for decentralized manufacturing, and as it has matured as a company, has placed a significant focus on quality assurance across that base of partners. In this episode, Cappy tells us about the growth of Hubs’ manufacturing network, what’s changed since the acquisition by Protolabs, and where the opportunities lie for 3D printing when it comes to supply chain.
