Thousands to Explore the Latest Advances for Connected Products,
Buildings and More
Autodesk University--Starting tomorrow at its annual
flagship user event, Autodesk, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADSK) will spotlight a
number of advances toward the future of making things. As
disruptions reshape how the world is designed and made, the company
will showcase new technologies and modes of work that will help
Autodesk University attendees navigate and thrive in this shifting
landscape.
“Technologies like the Internet of Things, augmented and virtual
reality, and robotics will change the way engineers and designers
work,” said Carl Bass, Autodesk president and CEO. “Places and
things are more connected, intelligent and dynamic than ever
before.”
In their keynote speeches to the nearly 10,000 attendees (and
hundreds of thousands online), Bass and Autodesk Chief Technology
Officer Jeff Kowalski will showcase the ways that innovative
organizations such as Airbus and MIT Media Lab are adapting to and
taking advantage of these technological shifts. They will also
demonstrate how Autodesk’s cloud-based 3D design, engineering and
fabrication software is helping these pioneering teams achieve
their goals.
During the event, the company will introduce a number of new
technologies and partners that will help enable Autodesk customers
to reach better outcomes and adapt to the future of making things.
The company will announce new cloud services focused on the
Internet of Things, construction document management, as well as a
new subscriber experience. The company will also roll out a series
of major new efforts focused on its developer ecosystem for cloud
services.
Other key moments of the Autodesk University event will include
Senior Vice President Amar Hanspal’s closing keynote on the
incredible solutions today’s designers and engineers are creating
to address some of the world’s most epic problems, such as access
to clean water, green energy and improving health outcomes for
everyone.
Also this year’s three Innovation Forums will be themed around
the major disruptions driving the future of making things – namely
changes in intellectual production, in physical production, and in
consumer demand and products. Speakers representing architecture
firms, civil infrastructure operations, construction companies,
manufacturers of varying sizes and from all over the world will
share stories of how they are evolving their workflows for a series
of inspirational projects.
