ROCKVILLE, Md., March 18, 2021 — (PRNewswire) — Xometry, the largest U.S. marketplace for on demand manufacturing, announced today that George Hornig will serve as the company's first Chairman of the Board.

"I am looking forward to serving as Chairman of Xometry," Hornig said. "It is the capstone of my career to help Xometry grow from inception to the unique custom, on demand manufacturing platform it is today. Given the $260 billion size of the addressable global market, Xometry has a tremendous opportunity to continue its growth, including the introduction of additional services like cash flow financing and supplies.
