Keselowski invests $10M in startup

Brad Keselowski

NASCAR driver BRAD KESELOWSKI has invested more than $10M to "start an advanced contract manufacturing company that he hopes will build off the knowledge gained from motorsports' early adoption of 3-D printing."

N.C.-based Keselowski Advanced Manufacturing "expects to work with aerospace, military, and oil and gas companies in the near term and expand to medical ones" in '20. The company "began operating quietly" in '18, and has "planned a press conference" for tomorrow to announce its launch.

Keselowski has hired STEVE FETCH, who previously worked as VP/Global Quality for 3D Systems, to be GM and "run the 70,000-square foot facility." FORBES.com
