Assessing the Impact of Additive Manufacturing on the Missile Technology Control Regime

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) has begun a new webinar series in the context of its theme “Quo Vadis MTCR: The Missile Technology Control Regime at a Crossroads”. The first webinar addresses Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, and brings a distinguished panel of technical and policy experts to discuss the challenges AM poses to export controls. The panel also discusses the challenge AM poses in the area of missiles, why a diverse set of stakeholders contributes to this proliferation risk, and how strengthened outreach to industry, research, and AM service providers may be part of the solution to reducing these risks.
