This is great, and I believe Andrea's collaboration with @RobertRHughes and @HJFelton started at AMNET, showing the value in the support of @BristolUniEng @BCFN_Bristol and @bristoldc in making that event happen. Hopefully, we can all be on a boat talking 3D printing again soon!

Hypothetically do y'all think it's possible to start another legendary research park? Like 1900s Bell Labs type status. Or, how does a research lab get to that level?
