With the post-pandemic lull now over, and a whirlwind of M&A drama out of the way, the technology industry has designers and engineers firmly in its sights and a stack of new products to offer them.
At DEVELOP3D, we’ve been keeping an eye across the software and hardware sectors for the best tools to boost your projects and workflows. From AI assistants to jigs & fixtures-focused CAD, we hope you’ll find something here to add to your own personal toolbox and make you both more innovative and more productive.
As always, the D3D 30 includes some brand-new technologies and newly hatched start-ups, as well as established names and proven tools, albeit with new capabilities added to keep them fresh and appealing.
Unlike other rankings, companies have been included in the D3D 30 entirely on the basis of merit. There’s no entry fee, no flashy black-tie awards ceremony, no sponsorship deals. Our only aim is to help readers identify the tools that will help them design and build the products of the future. Speaking with readers, we know that many of you have adopted the products previously featured in the D3D 30 and now can’t imagine working life without them.
We are confident that our Class of 2024 will bring to your attention many more worthy candidates. Check out the full list here.
