Executive summary SAM (Sector Skills Strategy in Additive Manufacturing) project, aims to deliver together with all partners and stakeholders a shared vision and collaborative skill solutions capable to foster and support the growth, innovation and competitiveness in the Additive Manufacturing (AM) sector. Work package 1 is composed of five deliverables (see Figure 1) that look individually into specific fields, thus supporting the definition of the European AM skills strategy. The European AM skills strategy is based on three pillars: firstly, global and societal challenges, secondly technology development and thirdly professional profiles (skills). Figure 1 - WP1 Deliverables overview The deliverable D1.3 corresponds to a Technological Long-Term Industrial Plan, which aims at defining and collect major technological developments expected to happen in the next 10 years, until 2030. These technological developments together with Global and Societal challenges and transformations (D1.2) and Current professional Profiles/skills Roadmap (D1.4) are critical to ensure that future skills needed in AM are identified in due time, thus guaranteeing that a skilful workforce
