SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Elegoo, a rapidly developing brand in global smart manufacturing, proudly announces the wrap-up of the first phase of its "ELEGOO With Her" initiative, a program supporting women creators worldwide through 3D printing. From over 110 sign-ups, 30 final participants from 17 countries stood out to join this phase. After three months of workshops and mentorship, the program now enters its showcase stage, with over 70% of participants new to 3D printing, underscoring its role in making the technology more accessible.
Launched at Formnext 2024, "ELEGOO With Her" was led by eight accomplished female designers and makers: Anouk Wipprecht, Batoul al-Rashdan, Brigitte Kock, Denise Bertacchi, Emily Boe (pseud.), Linette Manuel, Shehzeen Rehman, and Willow Creative (alias). Among the participants' creations were STEM kits empowering girls in Africa and intricately 3D-printed lamps inspired by early 20th-century design, showcasing 3D printing's creative potential in home decor, fashion, cosplay, and education.
"I remember how excited I was when I printed my first benchy. I also remember the failures. The hands-on workshops, mentorship, and community gave me more than just skills. They gave me the confidence to build and to lead," said Janet Zagah, a renewable energy entrepreneur and program participant.
"Having an inclusive program run by a company as big as Elegoo is powerful," said Kinnera Putti, a mobile developer who also participated in the program. "I hope others see what we've made and feel inspired to try something too."
"We've always believed 3D printing should be accessible to everyone, and these projects show just how powerful it can be when women challenge themselves and use the technology to create and improve lives beyond their own," said Coco Lee, Brand Director of Elegoo. "With proven reliability and ease of use, we're proud that our products enable people from all backgrounds to unleash their creativity and bring their ideas to life."
While this chapter wraps, the journey continues. Elegoo has made its workshops public on YouTube, and the next showcase will be at IFA Berlin this September, where their work will inspire more women to create.

Elegoo Wraps the First Phase of "ELEGOO With Her", Spotlighting Women Creators in Home Decor, Fashion, Cosplay, and Education
SINGAPORE, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Coda, a global leader in digital content monetization, today announced that it is integrating Unity's In‑App Purchasing (IAP) SDK with Coda's global web store platforms. This collaboration offers developers a single place to manage and optimize their entire digital catalog across mobile, web, and PC - directly through Unity's existing IAP workflow.
With just a few lines of code, developers can launch secure, branded web stores powered by Coda - offering players more ways to purchase securely while improving their margins.
The integration is powered by Coda's Merchant of Record (MoR) solution, which is already trusted by leading publishers and fast-growing studios worldwide. As the legal seller in each market, Coda manages payments, fraud prevention, tax remittance, invoicing, and compliance across more than 70 markets and over 400 payment methods. This gives developers more time to focus on the game and the player experience.
"As the games industry moves beyond closed ecosystems, developers of every size want more flexibility and control over how they grow," said Shane Happach, CEO of Coda. "Our integration with Unity's IAP SDK gives creators more choice in how they launch and operate their own stores, wherever their players are, minus the complexity of managing global payments or compliance. This reflects Coda's commitment to democratizing game development and helping every studio, large or small, succeed on their own terms."
As web-based purchasing becomes a more practical part of developers' business mix, interest in direct-to-consumer web stores continues to grow. Today, these channels already account for roughly 26% of mobile gaming revenue in East and Southeast Asia, according to research from Niko Partners and Coda.
First-party web stores give developers greater control over pricing, promotions, and player communication, but introduce operational complexity across payments, compliance, fraud, and support. Coda removes these barriers with a scalable payments and risk platform, integrated directly into Unity's workflow.
Coda's integration with Unity's IAP sets a new D2C standard by bringing out-of-app monetization into developers' existing workflows, removing operational complexity, and making it easier to run web stores at a global scale.
