In the 3D printing industry, one or more individuals in additive manufacturing firms contributes significantly to the industry that others  offer recognition. As this industry continues to gain acceptance, it’s important to acknowledge the contributions of these and other individuals who contribute to its growth.

This year, Frank Herzog was voted Best CEO in the Additive Manufacturing Industry 2015 by the London-based publication “European CEO.” The award recognizes the outstanding entrepreneurship that has made Concept Laser successful since the company was founded in 2000. The judging panel also honored Herzog’s achievements in the field of laser melting with metals that have contributed to additive manufacturing as a groundbreaking technology.

 The publication “European CEO” in London has been presenting the CEO of the Year Award for more than 8 years. The network of journalists and industry insiders at “European CEO” observes influential trends, initiatives and developments across European industry as well as the executives and CEOs who shape it.

The nomination process for 2015 CEO of the Year

Each year, “European CEO” asks a panel of internal judges to identify entrepreneurs who they think will shape the future. The publication then ranks these leaders by the number of votes they receive from panel members. In 2015, three finalists were nominated for top CEO in additive manufacturing.

The award recognizes not only Frank Herzog’s entrepreneurship, but also his dedication and innovative contributions to additive manufacturing.
