From Horsepower to Laser Power: Can Additive Manufacturing Turbocharge the Auto Industry?
<p><span style="background-color: transparent;">So far in this season of Laser Focused, we’ve explored space, peeked at aviation, and taken a step into our past to improve our future. In this episode, we come back to Earth to talk about something that touches many of our lives daily : the automotive industry.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">In this episode, Renette sits down with Ante Lausic, Lead Process Engineer at GM. Ante has over a decade of experience in the automotive, aerospace, and additive manufacturing fields and wrote a doctoral thesis that combined 3D printing with the high strength of nanocrystalline materials. Renette and Ante discuss how GM is utilizing AM-enabled manufacturing to streamline complex designs and explore a whole new world of possibilities in the automotive industry. The pair also delve into the importance of education in additive manufacturing and how GM provides their engineers with the tools to explore these emerging technologies.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">To learn more about GM, visit </span><a href="https://www.gm.com/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">gm.com</a><span style="background-color: transparent;">.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Follow our host, Renette Youssef:</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Twitter: </span><a href="https://twitter.com/renette" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@Renette</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">LinkedIn: </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/renette/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@renette</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Instagram: </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/_renette/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@_renette</a></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Follow Velo3D:</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Twitter </span><a href="https://twitter.com/VELO3DMetal" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@VELO3DMetal</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">LinkedIn: </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/velo3d/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@velo3d</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Instagram </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/velo3d/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@velo3d</a></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Laser Focused is presented by Velo3D </span><a href="https://velo3d.com/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">Velo3d.com</a><span style="background-color: transparent;">.</span></p>

Guardian of the Galaxy: An Interview with a Real-Life Astronaut Wrangler
<p><span style="background-color: transparent;">What’s the next step after managing a man who walked on the moon? For Christina Korp, it’s connecting the space curious to the space serious. In this episode, Renette speaks with Christina Korp, Astronaut Wrangler, Producer, & Founder of Space For A Better World.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">After a decade of managing Buzz Aldrin, Christina knew there was more work to be done to attract people to work in space, and educate humankind on the benefits space exploration can have right here on Earth. We’re still facing a significant talent gap in the space industry, which needs curious, passionate individuals across a variety of professions, not solely in the math and science realm. Renette and Christina explore how Christina’s non-profit organization, Space for a Better World fosters an entertaining and educational space for people to learn more, and perhaps take one big step towards an exciting and fulfilling career. The pair also discuss what we got wrong with the STEM movement, why Christina often refers to it as a mistake, and what we can do to promote education around the space industry.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">To learn more about Christina and her work, visit </span><a href="https://www.spaceforabetterworld.com/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">spaceforabetterworld.com</a>.</p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Follow our host, Renette Youssef:</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Twitter: </span><a href="https://twitter.com/renette" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@Renette</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">LinkedIn: </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/renette/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@renette</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Instagram: </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/_renette/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@_renette</a></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Follow Velo3D:</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Twitter </span><a href="https://twitter.com/VELO3DMetal" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@VELO3DMetal</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">LinkedIn: </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/velo3d/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@velo3d</a></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">•</span> <span style="background-color: transparent;">Instagram </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/velo3d/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">@velo3d</a></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Laser Focused is presented by Velo3D </span><a href="https://velo3d.com/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">Velo3d.com</a>.</p>
