IAM3D®: Innovative Additive Manufacturing 3D Challenge

ASME E-Fests® and ASME EFx® Events in academic year 2023 & 2024

EFx events are IN-PERSON, locally organized throughout the world and several EFx events will include our ASME competitions such as IAM3D.  Please visit the ASME E-Fest website for an updated list of events at https://efests.asme.org/.  Events will be added as they are confirmed. 

ASME will ALSO continue to host our two signature FULLY virtual events:  E-Fest Careers (September 23, 2023) and E-Fest Digital (March 16, 2024). 

We encourage students, competitors, and faculty members to take advantage of the learning experiences provided by both our competitions and other digital offerings throughout the year.  Questions may be directed to efests@asme.org.

Not all EFx events will have every competition available. Check that IAM3D is available at that event before registering.
