CEO of JSC Laser Systems on the Program "100 Questions About the Future of Russia"

Dmitry Vasilyev participated in the open dialogue "100 Questions About the Future of Russia," dedicated to the topic of "Technological Leadership" with the First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, Denis Manturov.

The participation format involved discussing questions submitted by viewers of the National Center "Russia," where the event took place. In addition to Dmitry Vasilyev, eight other experts from various sectors of Russian industry took part in the open dialogue. Their main task was to discuss national goals and projects aimed at Russia's technological leadership in a way that is accessible to a wide audience.

Dmitry Vasilyev answered a question from the host of the open dialogue, Vladimir Solovyov: "When will we be able to print cars on a 3D printer and drive them immediately? Or machines, for example? It sounds very promising. Human organs are already being printed—will this technology be used for industry?"

In his answer, he emphasized that components for machines produced by the company are already being printed on their own 3D printers, and additive technologies are currently developing so rapidly that within the next decade it may become possible to produce fully functional cars using 3D printing.

"The market growth forecasts for additive technologies and 3D printing provided by experts are being revised upwards every six months. This means the market is growing very fast, and the automotive industry is a global leader in consuming additive technology services."

Dmitry Vasilyev also stressed that for the development of such a high-tech field as additive manufacturing, it is necessary to train engineers at Russian universities specifically in working with additive technologies.
