Franklin, MA, June 30, 2015 – Actionable Intelligence (www.action-intell.com) announces the addition of Michael Nadeau as senior market analyst. He will cover the 3D printing/additive manufacturing market. In addition, Mr. Nadeau will explore the opportunities 3D printing offers resellers in the traditional hardcopy channels, including office-equipment dealers, IT value-added resellers (VARs), and systems aggregators.
“We are excited to add Mike to our team,” says Actionable Intelligence President Charles Brewer. “He is an experienced business and technology analyst who will deliver high-value content to educate, inform, and guide our readers and clients as they move into the uncharted waters of the 3D market.” Mr. Brewer observes that, for many firms, 3D printing technologies offer the potential of healthy future growth, but to succeed these companies must make the right choices. “Mike will help our clients separate the wheat from the chaff so they can recognize opportunities and avoid the many snares inherent in the current 3D market.”
“The 3D printing reseller channel represents a great opportunity for resellers in the 2D hardcopy market,” says Mr. Nadeau. “Those resellers are well positioned to find success, and 3D OEMs know that.” As the newest member of the Actionable Intelligence team, Mr. Nadeau will explore the factors that make for a successful OEM/reseller relationship. “OEMs and resellers are still learning how to best work together, and I want the help make Actionable Intelligence a valuable resource to move that process forward.”
Mr. Nadeau will cover technology, business, and legal developments in the rapidly changing 3D market. “This is a very exciting time for the 3D market,” he says. “The technology is getting much faster and better with each generation, and with those improvements come new applications and opportunities. That said, success is anything but ensured. I look forward to helping Actionable Intelligence map a course to profitability for its clients.”
