TAAG XCHANGE

Where the business of additive manufacturing gets serious.

Xchange is the thought-leadership and convening pillar of TAAG Group, built for the senior leaders and investors making major decisions in industrial AM.

A continuous programme of business-oriented intelligence, and a global series of structured executive roundtables, bringing operators and investors together in the markets where industrial AM is developing fastest.

In partnership with a leading UK business school.

The Philosophy

The Business of Additive Manufacturing Deserves Its Own Forum.

Every major AM event was built for engineers, and that made sense when the technology was still unproven. That work is largely done, but the industry’s defining problem now is industrialisation and scale, and those are leadership questions, not engineering ones.

TAAG Xchange was created to close that gap, through a global programme of VIP roundtables. Curated C-suite and executive delegates, keynotes from key adjacent industry and investment leaders, structured roundtables, expert moderation, no sales pitches, and a published report that gives every participant something they can actually use. In partnership with a leading University Business School.

The Leaders Forum

The TAAG Leaders Forum brings together 70 pre-screened C-suite and senior executives across ten structured roundtables, each chaired by a TAAG moderator and working through a defined question set.

Who Attends

The Leaders Forum brings together three distinct audiences. Each contributes a different perspective, and the balance between them is managed deliberately to ensure the quality of dialogue that defines the format.

Industrial Leaders

C-suite and senior leaders in advanced manufacturing who want to engage with the strategic and commercial questions shaping their sector, alongside peers navigating the same forces.

Investors

Fund managers, family offices, and institutional investors who want structured access to the operator community and the intelligence to support better investment decisions.

Sponsors

Technology partners, financial institutions, and professional service firms who want to be part of the serious business conversation in advanced manufacturing, with visibility across all markets in the programme.
