I work at Signify in the MyCreation corporate venture using 3D printing to design and manufacture sustainable custom performance lighting for our customers at scale. An overview:

I started working on 3D printing at Philips Research in 2012 and co-founded the 3D printing venture in 2017.

The venture was started as a corporate venture within Signify (formerly Philips Lighting). We offer bespoke and (mass) customised lighting products at high volume using 3D printing. My current role includes building a technology strategy for our digital manufacturing technologies and digital platforms to further scale our business and be able to expand and improve our offers to our customers.

Philips MyCreation (Consumer)

Philips MyCreation is an online-service enabling people to design and order their own customised lighting fixture. We 3D-print it on-demand and deliver it to their homes.
