3D Pioneer Partners with Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology

3D Pioneer Systems, a diversified technology company focused on delivering true plug and play 3D printers and printer applications, has entered into a development agreement with the Institute of Art and Design, which is part of the Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology (MCAST).

Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology is a post-secondary vocational education and training college and currently offers 156 vocational programs to over 6,000 full day students, as well as a number of part-time evening courses to around 4000 young and adult learners.

Thanks to the pact, the company will be able to kick-start many future projects with MCAST, commencing with the creation and marketing of an opening sequence video for the upcoming mobile gaming app being developed by Pioneer 3D specifically for children, with the project name BAROON.

As part of the agreement, 3D Pioneer will also be offering a donation towards the annual End of Year Exhibition organized by the Institute of Art and Design.

“I am delighted to partner with MCAST for the upcoming launch of BAROON. I am blown away by the quality of the students' work and their drive to advance their skills.” said Alexandros Tsingos, CEO of 3D Pioneer, in a statement.

Tsingos said that through this collaboration, the company’s aim is to cultivate and strengthen the next generation of media artists, developers and entrepreneurs from MCAST, while harnessing their skills, vision and enthusiasm to drive the continued development of 3D Pioneer's innovative product line.

To help build some activity around the Baroon, 3D Pioneer has created a contest accessible via Facebook (News - Alert).

Earlier in March, 3D Pioneer Systems had announced that is has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Magic Firm, a private technology manufacturing company based in Hangzhou, China, with the goal being the collaboration on the development and initial production run of the company's 3D printers and related accessory hardware.
