Robert Swartz is the Founder and Chairman of Impossible Objects, the pioneer of Composite-Based Additive Manufacturing (CBAM) technology that is redefining industrial-scale 3D printing with advanced composite materials like carbon fiber and PEEK.

A lifelong inventor and entrepreneur, Swartz studied mathematics and computer science and went on to found several software and patent licensing companies before being inspired by the transformative potential of 3D printing at an MIT laboratory.

Swartz has served as a long-term intellectual property consultant at the MIT Media Lab, bringing deep expertise in patents, innovation, and emerging technology to everything he builds.

Under Swartz's founding leadership, Impossible Objects has raised over $54 million in total funding including a landmark $40 million Series B, and secured $20 million in U.S. government contracts across aerospace and defense.

Impossible Objects' CBAM technology serves customers including Boeing, Siemens, Honeywell, the U.S. Air Force, and the U.S. Navy, producing parts up to 15x faster and 3x stronger than legacy additive manufacturing methods.
