A blizzard in the East Coast, TSA shortage, and flight cancellations disrupted DE 24/7 editors' conference coverage, but they still managed to collect news from Additive Manufacturing Strategies Show, ASSESS (hosted by NAFEMS), AMUG, and NVIDIA GTC.

Editorial Director Brian Albright discusses the networking opportunities at the Additive Manufacturing Strategies Show, his impressions of the keynotes and the atmosphere at ASSESS, a vendor-independent simulation user conference hosted by NAFEMS (The National Agency for Finite Element Methods and Standards), and the implications of the research data shared by McKinsey and Cambashi.

Associated Editor Stephanie Skernivitz discusses her visits to AMUG, an additive manufacturing show organized by the users themselves, and how the travel issues' impact on show attendance.

Senior Editor Kenneth Wong talks about the news from NVIDIA GTC, where NVIDIA unveiled a new AI-targeted hardware system, and touted its partnerships with simulation software vendors, and the company's interest in the open-source OpenClaw software.
