    The Centre Pompidou is one of the most visited attractions in France with some 3
million visitors every year. This year's Multiversites Creatives exhibition (May 2nd -
August 6th) focuses on the future of industry and deals with new creative tools. Visitors
will be drawn by 15 different projects created by a new generation of young designers
exploring the intersection of technology and art.

    "The sponsorship of this exhibition is momentous for our business as a broader
awareness of 3D printing technology is key to the industry's future rapid growth," states
David Reis, Objet CEO. "The 3D printing industry has the potential to invigorate how we
think about product design, art and engineering. The process enables artists, designers
and engineers to rapidly create whole assemblies, unique artistic geometries and
functional prototypes straight from a 3D design."

    Objet is inviting the media to attend its Private VIP Media Event on Friday 4th May,
which includes a guided tour of the 'Multiversites Creatives' exhibition, accompanied by
Neri Oxman. Taking place from 8.30-11.00am at the Centre Pompidou, the event starts with a
VIP breakfast buffet in the Restaurant Georges on the 6th floor, with panoramic views of
the Paris skyline. The Objet Media Event is by free invitation only; as number of
