Spotlight On: Rev Murugesan

In the latest episode of our Spotlight Series we caught up with founder and CEO of Antonym, Revannth Murugesan.
Antonym is an advanced manufacturing company based in the heart of Leeds that focuses on accelerating local domestic manufacturing using 3D printing technology. Since the company began, Antonym has delivered value to its customers in three key ways: helping to reduce the cost of overseas manufacturing; reducing the environmental impact of global shipping; and building resilience into supply chains.
Rev shares how innovation-led businesses are shaping the current and future business landscape in Leeds City Region, his advice for anyone looking to pursue a career in tech, and his upcoming plans to build Leeds' first ever 3D printing manufacturing microfactory.
"Leeds is a perfect intersection of [...] public organisations like Leeds City Council and local Government, on the private side you have KPMG and Natwest Bank, and then there are also academic institutions as well. The great thing is that all of these stakeholders work in unison to deliver tangible value, and Antonym is a living local example of this."
