Xometry has appointed Marc Teulières as its new General Manager for Europe to lead efforts in expanding buyer adoption and supplier network density. The move comes as European industrial firms actively restructure their supply chains and modernize custom parts sourcing.
Why it matters
The hire targets the scaling of enterprise relationships in a fragmented European manufacturing market where digitizing procurement remains a key competitive priority. By focusing on network density, the company aims to bridge the gap between regional industrial buyers and custom suppliers.
Xometry reported $229 million in revenue for Q2 2026, a 41% increase year over year, with its marketplace segment growing 45% during the same period. The firm is now banking on the 20-year industry experience of its new regional leader to sustain this momentum.
