Designed for Life - In conversation with Jason Yeung Co Founder PrintLab

In this episode, we are delighted to be in conversation with architect, entrepreneur and co-founder of PrintLab, a 3D printing business focused on providing hardware and curriculum content to educators within the UK and indeed worldwide. https://weareprintlab.com/This is a podcast that we have been chasing for a while now. PrintLabs curriculum content and resources are exceptional, and we have seen so many schools excited about what a well-constructed CAD/Manufacturing curriculum can do for their students. As always, we follow Jason from school as he transitioned to the architect he always thought he would be. Sometimes that final destination pays well and ticks many boxes for a 'creative career for life' but doesn't quite excite you and make you want more. Passion for what you do is such an important part of working life.Jason turned his back on architecture as a career and instead moved into a field he knew very little about in 3D design and printing. A couple of years later and circumstance threw up the opportunity to co-found his own business; this felt like a natural progression and PrintLab was born. We discuss the challenges faced and the progress of PrintLab and how you head up a fast-growing company when you are a self-confessed introvert who hates being centre stage. I loved this conversation, and I think you will too. This podcast has been recorded with the help of our sponsors, The Edge Foundation https://www.edge.co.uk/ inspiring the education system to give all young people across the UK the knowledge, skills and behaviours they need to flourish in their future life and work, and PTC Onshape Providing industry-standard cloud-based CAD to education  https://www.ptc.com/en/news/2020/ptc-onshape-education-enterprise-plan-available-free-of-charge.We are indebted to The Edge and PTC Onshape for their continued support.
