Mr. Pettis is the CEO of MakerBot, the powerhouse that brought 3-D printers into the mainstream. While it may appear to some as an overblown fad, the technology is being used to manufacture car parts, dental implants and even prosthetic hands. With his determined promotion of 3-D printing’s industrial and medical capabilities, Mr. Pettis is at the forefront of this revolution, especially with Stratasys’ recent $604 million acquisition of MakerBot.
