European Union Industrial Strategy and Additive Manufacturing
The EU's industrial strategy focuses on enhancing the resilience of industrial ecosystems through additive manufacturing. The manufacturing industry in Europe is a vital driver of employment, innovation, and prosperity. Despite being a front runner in metal and hybrid 3D printing, the EU faces challenges in standardization and raw material scarcity. The Advanced Technologies for Industry Monitor project systematically tracks the adoption of advanced technologies in EU industries. The Industrial Forum facilitates stakeholder collaboration in co-designing solutions to support the EU's green and digital transition.

Importance of the manufacturing industry in Europe The manufacturing industry is a strong asset for the European economy and an important driver of employment and prosperity. It also plays a key role in research and innovation, being responsible for 64% of private sector research development expenditure and 49% of innovation expenditure in Europe. The manufacturing sector accounts for: - 2 million enterprises (around 1 in 10 of all enterprises in the EU-27 s non-financial businesses) - 2,078 billion in gross value added - 32.1 million jobs in 2019 in manufacturing in the EU 27 (including 14.5 million jobs in advanced manufacturing)
EU competitive positioning in additive manufacturing The EU is a front runner in metal and hybrid 3D printing but faces challenges in terms of standardisation and scarcity of raw materials
Advanced Technologies for Industry Monitor The Industry analyses and systematically monitors the state of uptake of advanced technologies by EU industry. Advanced Technologies for The main users of this project are policymakers, industry representatives and academia. https://ati.ec.europa.eu/
