Filemon and his family have a long history in printing. Around 1450, Filemon’s great-great-grand father, Peter Schöffer, made the family’s first move into the print business, working as an engineer in Germany, assisting Gutenberg with the development of the first printing press. After a short detour from the family in producing beer, which led to the infamous Schöfferhofer, Filemon thought the time was right for the family to step back into modern printing, 3D printing that is. With a background in both Physics and Industrial Design Engineering Filemon hopes he’s able to contribute in moving the 3D printing industry forward. Since 2013, he works as Head of Community at 3D Hubs (@3DHubs). He's also the father of Marvin (@Marvin_3D), symbol of the 3D printing movement.
