Elegoo, a brand in smart manufacturing, launches a $1 million creator fund for reportedly outstanding original creators who share content in Nexprint. The fund will be distributed over one year to grant Nexprint creators who submit their original designs to the platform. 

Each month, Elegoo says it will invest in a reward pool to grant $5 to each approved submission. There is no exclusivity capped on the design. Exceptional designs will be rewarded with an extra $5 each and featured for priority exposure in Nexprint. There is no restriction on the number of monthly submissions by an individual creator. For outstanding creators, there are long-term collaborations, according to Elegoo.

For alliance reward, creators can receive additional tiered invitation bonuses by inviting other creators to join and upload models, with a maximum of $100 per month.

The reward is granted monthly on a first-come-first-served basis with the first phase starting from August 9 to August 31. The left amount available in each month will be updated live on Nexprint.com. Starting from September, the total available reward amount will be renewed on the first day of each month.

"This fund shows our commitment to delivering the best user experience to Nexprint community by hosting a tremendous amount of 3D models accessible to everyone " says Chris Hong, CEO at Elegoo. "Nexprint will be a perfect platform to showcase creators' original ideas."

Launched August 4, Nexprint open-source community connects makers worldwide by enabling the share and download of 3D models.

For more information on how to join and win the reward, please visit www.nexprint.com.
