*'''How it works: '''Membership in the industrial consortium is open to any organization interested in the application of additive manufacturing technologies. The consortium members include public and private corporations, as well as nonprofit educational institutions. Membership is available at three member levels (Full, Half, and Quarter Memberships). In order to encourage the sharing of information, this is a non-compete consortium; consortium member at the Half or Full Membership level can maintain exclusivity in their industry.<span style="font-size: small;"> </span>
