Roboze, a 3D printing company serving the aerospace, energy and manufacturing industries, opened a U.S. headquarters in Houston to capitalize on the region’s pool of engineering talent and central location.

The company, based in Bari in southern Italy, set up shop in a new building at 7934 Breen Road in northwest Houston. “We want to really focus now on the U.S. market and have Houston as our second home in the world,” said Roboze founder and CEO Alessio Lorusso.
