understand given the type of product we will be selling and the industries we will be selling to. Fortunately for us, Germany devotes 2.853% of its GDP to R&D activities which is even higher than our home country of the United States which only devotes 2.806% of GDP (OECD II 1). Ultimately, after thoroughly assessing the economic situation in Germany we as a country firmly believe that we can be successful not just in Berlin, but the entirety of the country. Now that we have briefly examined what we will sell and who we will sell it to and analyzed the culture and economy of Germany. It becomes time to move to the final part of our report where we outline just how we plan to market our product in Berlin to our target customers. Just …show more content…
This type of technology has countless applications for personalized patient care and the study of the human body and could greatly assist hospitals and academic researchers. In addition to 3-D printing’s applications in medicine, our 3-D printing technology can also “Produce organic, complex geometries that can 't be manufactured any other way. For parts that will be 3D printed, like jigs, fixtures and custom components, you can set aside the usual design-for-manufacturing constraints” and greatly reduce costs for the pharmaceutical industry in the manufacturing of their products (Stratasys II 1). Initially we plan on selling two models of printers to service each of these two types of customers. For the hospitals/clinics and academic researchers, we plan on marketing our Connex3 printer. We have chosen to market this particular model due to its ability to “Simulate everything from soft tissue and muscles to cartilage and bone in a single print job. It can even incorporate clear materials to get an unobstructed view of hidden tissues and blood vessels” (Stratasys II 1). For our customers in the pharmaceutical industry, we are choosing to market our Eden 250 3-D printer due to its aforementioned ability to construct complex geometries for
As 3D printing transitions from commercial manufacturing use to personal private use individuals will have the ability to print any design. Products can range from a pair of shoes to complicated engineering designs, life-saving devices, prosthetic limbs and weapons that pass airport security. In the future we will likely see printable medications and
Three-dimensional (3D) printing, is taking a huge role in major innovations within many fields these days such as the engineering, education, and medical. 3D printing in the medical field promise with many fascinated achievements that no one thought that they will be possible someday. 3D printing technology is rapidly becoming more and more common among doctors and medical researchers. Different professionals from different fields advance the use of 3D printing. That allows patients from different countries to use 3D printing technology to experience better health options. 3D printing technology can be used in many ways in the medical field such as printing drugs. 3D printers can be used to make chemical combinations. A patient will be able to print his medicines at home, by putting
The field of bioprinting, using 3D printing technology for producing live cells with extreme accuracy, could be the answer to many of the problems we as humans face in the medical field. It could be the end to organ waiting lists and an alternative for organ transplants. In 3D printing technology lies the potential to replace the testing of new drugs on animals. However, the idea of applying 3 dimensional printing to the health industry is still quite new and yet to have a major impact. Manufacturing working 3D organs remains an enormous challenge, but in theory could solve major issues present today.
In a study conducted through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on “average 79 people will receive an organ each day; however, an average of 22 people die each day” waiting for transplants that cannot take place because of the shortage of donated organs (U.S. D.H.H.S). The average amount of patients waiting for an organ can reduce to zero with the continued development of 3-D printers. 3-D printing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The digital file is uploaded onto a computer software, and then the 3-D printer prints the digital file out onto different materials. The materials include plastic, resin, nylon, sandstone. The finish products become replicas of the digital file, and what was an idea is now a reality. Therefore, 3-D printers will one day be the future of organ transplants because over the past twenty years the technology industry has rapidly grown into the focal point in society. From advancement in communication, to the medical field, science and technology has shaped this world today. Thus, the American Government should invest more money into the medical field budget because the research conducted on new technology (3-D Printers) leads to more lives saved, and expands the opportunity of future medical breakthroughs.
Secondly, advanced 3D printing applied to the medical field can be utilized in an Engels non capitalist technology drive society to impact the area of safety. In this utopian society, advanced 3D printing will have the capabilities to print synthetic tissue and organic tissue that can bond to the patient’s cells. In effect, this helps the patient’s wound heal faster. This type of advanced 3D bio printing can save many lives
In this essay I will consider to what extent the German economy has been central to change regarding the development of Germany over the whole period, 1890-1991. I will consider the German economy under the Kaiser in accordance with World War 1, during Hyperinflation under the Weimar Republic in 1923, in Nazi Germany under Hitler and in East and West Germany leading to the building of the Berlin Wall. It appears that the German economy to a large degree has been exceedingly central to change in the country over this entire period. It is evident though that the economy itself has not solely been the derivation of precise events over the course of the period. There have been other ideas and proceedings that must be taken into consideration
November 11, 1918 brought about the end of World War I and the demise of the German economy. With no hope for the future, the German people became desperate and eventually put a young man with big dreams into power by the name of Adolf Hitler. To succeed in his goal of bringing back honor and respect to Germany Hitler knew he needed loyal people in large quantities. To do this he rewarded women for having large families and put their children through training camps to shape them into the ideal Nazi. After his defeat on September 2, 1945, it was the Allies job to repair the damage of twelve years of Nazi propaganda.
3D printing is slowly making its way into the mainstream train of thought. Students at an abundance of universities have access to this incredible innovation. To some this exciting technology seems to be nothing but a fad. However, 3D printing has already began to make significant strides in the medical field. With the right business strategies, we believe that 3D printing will take the medical field to a place we before never saw as possible.
The most devastated facet of the German economy was its infrastructure. With Hitler’s previously mentioned scorched earth policy destroying a large percentage of it. Likewise, the war itself had a major impact “Much of [Germany’s] infrastructure, including major ports and railroad hubs, had been heavily bombed… Dresden had been [completely] destroyed [and seven million Germans lost their lives]” (Rienzi). Even if Germany had a sizeable workforce, they would have been unable to develop due to the utter destruction that morphed the region into a wasteland. In addition, factories were destroyed in order to dismantle the war making ability of the German state (Taylor). The removal of factories and other industries obviously hampered the economy,
It will also focus on forming a strategic alliance with Kaufhof during these six months and market and advertise about the same using social media. It can come up with great offers and early discounts in the initial few weeks so as to draw more customers and form an attractive image.
In recent years, three-dimensional printing has been introduced into the field of medicine. These 21st century breakthroughs have greatly impacted everyone in the field, ranging from doctors, to patients patients and even to researchers. Three-dimensional printing is a process where a physical object is printed- by using a computer generated image. to create an object by laying down successive layers of material.(What is 3D printing?) Three-dimensional printing has significantly advanced in the medical field, as medical researchers have spent millions of dollars and endless hours in the name of progress. While some may question whether or
Health IT professionals may be called on to support 3D printing equipment in hospitals, research laboratories, and beyond.
When looking at the Balkan region, the desires of the significant countries involved in its affairs during the 19th and early 20th century must be considered. Germany, under the leadership of prominent and influential leaders such as Otto von Bismarck and Kaiser Wilhelm I, desired for a united German people. This would then subsequently have a drastic impact on their foreign policy, shown when Bismarck insulted the French in the making of the treaty for the Franco-Prussian War, leading to hatred for the Germans by the French. Serbia shared a similar desire as these German leaders, as they sought to unite the Southern Slavs under one country. Thus, they would consistently ask for territories containing these people and would be incensed against
With the very limited supply of organs, 3D printing creates functioning organs without a donation from a living organism. The definition of 3D printing from Charles W. Hull, the inventor of 3D systems, states that “...thin layers of a material that can be cured with ultraviolet light were sequentially printed in layers to form a solid 3D structure” (Murphy & Atala 773). The sheer narrow sheets play a vital role in bioprinting. They allow the printers to develop functional, layering individual cells, proteins, and an extracellular matrix. The three basic types of 3D printing include biomimicry, independent self- assembly, and miniature tissue blocks. The creation of the 3D structure creates all the difference between these types of printing. Three dimensional structure approaches include, creating exact duplicates of the cells and tissues with extensive knowledge, using a developing embryo as a template or using microscopic tissues to assemble into a larger developed tissue (Kalaskar). In other words, all these paths to bioprinting end up with a 3D structure but require different knowledge and materials. They all contain their own sets of challenges.
Market Opportunities: For U.S. companies, the German market (the largest in the EU), continues to be attractive in numerous sectors and remains an important element of any comprehensive export strategy to Europe. While U.S. investors must reckon with a relatively higher cost of doing business in Germany, they can count on high levels of
