HZG Group

The HZG Group invests venture capital and operates its own development and application centre with a clear focus on innovative 3D printing technologies.

The managing directors of the HZG Group, Kerstin Herzog and Frank Carsten Herzog, developed a shared idea into a technology company, that now ranks among the global market leaders in the field of additive manufacturing. The exit to a globally active group secured the company's technological leadership and accelerated its access to global markets.

Today, Kerstin Herzog and Frank Carsten Herzog, together with their team at the HZG Group, invest in innovative start-ups through the ‘HZG Additive Manufacturing Tech Fund’. In addition, the HZG Group operates naddcon: In this development and application centre, experienced engineers work with state-of-the-art machines and applications to support founders, start-ups and companies in developing forward-looking technical solutions in the field of 3D printing.

Geographically, the HZG Group is located in Upper Franconia (northern Bavaria), one of the world's most important centres for 3D metal printing.
