For the past several years, Make Parts Fast parent magazine, Design World, has held a Leadership In Engineering competition among various companies in various industries.  Winners are chosen by you, our audience. The guidelines for your choice are simple, yet complex.

A real leader in an engineering environment, whether he is the CEO or an engineering manager, requires traits of passion, commitment, and a genuine interest in the welfare of each employee in the organization. This attitude nurtures a company that encourages every employee to be on top of their skills, truly committed to their jobs, and believe that what they do serves their customers to the best of their ability.

For the second year in a row, 3D Systems has been chosen by you as the primary example of leadership in engineering in the field of rapid prototyping/ additive manufacturing/ 3d printing.  Make Parts Fast and Design World extend our congratulations to 3D Systems on this accomplishment.

Design World magazine will be holding this competition again in 2012.  Be sure to register your vote for the company that you think demonstrates leadership in engineering by clicking on the Leadership icon on their home page.
