Velo3D Inc. has announced shares of its common stock have begun trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “VLD” following its merger with Jaws Spitfire Acquisition Corporation. The combined company will now operate as Velo3D and will be led by CEO and Founder Benny Buller. According to the company, the merger will fuel the Velo3D’s next stage of growth.

We will continue to push the limits of additive manufacturing technology so our customers can innovate without compromise. I would like to thank the entire Velo3D team for making all of this possible.”
