Josh Brost has been looking for innovation in the aerospace industry since he graduated college. In his interesting talk, Josh tells us how the Stargate 3D printing platform, the largest 3D metal printers in the world, is poised to revolutionize aerospace and other industries. Josh Brost knows rockets. He started his career as an aerospace engineer at Boeing, moved into business at the Boston Consulting Group and spent nine years at SpaceX. Today he is responsible for business development strategy and customer mission management at Relativity Space.

Relativity Space is a vertically integrated technology platform that fuses 3D printing, artificial intelligence and autonomous robotics to design, print and fly entirely 3D-printed rockets with 100x fewer parts in less than 60 days.

As an experienced aerospace business leader, Josh has a proven track record of shaping how customers purchase existing services and novel capabilities. Under Josh's leadership, Relativity’s first rocket, Terran 1 has become the most pre-sold rocket in history, with multiple contracts from both private and government entities, such as NASA, the U.S. Department of Defense, Iridium, and Telesat to name a few. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
