Smashing Success on Kickstarter:
Wiivv Wearables Breaks Crowdfunding Record
for 3D Printed Products & InsolesBy Bridget Butler Millsaps | Mar 2, 2016 | 3D Design, 3D Printing
“the bionics company creating 3D printed custom gear with human comfort in mind and starting off with the feet – is certainly running on a direct path to success as the most funded 3D printed good in Kickstarter history. In a stunning show of support, those pledging helped them to go to full funding, and then on to full funding, and then on to reach 470% of their original goal.” {Note: Original goal was $50k}
