Mark Sommer
Mark Sommer is the founder and CEO of Gamma Alloys, a Santa Clarita-based materials company that 'decorates' metal powders with ceramic nanoparticles to make aluminum strong enough to 3D print into aerospace and automotive parts. He simultaneously leads Del West Engineering, the Formula 1 world's go-to maker of titanium valves and lightweight valvetrain components. Backed by Boeing HorizonX, his bet is that of the roughly 5,500 industrial alloys in use, only a few dozen work with 3D printers today, and Gamma's nano-ceramic process can unlock the rest.
