pies, just how big is the con-
struction industry for Au-
todesk?’
“It is a significant industry for
us. It’s certainly an area that
is growing faster than many
other parts of the company
and we’re investing heavily
and expect great things from
ourselves in construction…
We see building construction,
infrastructure construction,
[and] industrial construction
as major growth opportuni-
ties for Autodesk, not only as
the world needs to increase
its construction output to
meet its demands, but [also
because] there is a shift in ap-
plication of technology that
we are excited to be a part
of,” says Matt. As technol-
ogy continues to grow at an
accelerated rate, Matt is con-
fident that Autodesk will con-
tinue to create state-of-the-
art 3D software for people of
all walks of life and in every
market around the world.
Originally only available to
big businesses such as movie
studios, automakers, and ar-
chitectural firms, Autodesk is
making this technology avail-
able to anyone, including a re-
markable program to provide
software to students free-of-
charge.
No matter if you’re a young,
inexperienced teenager look-
ing to build a new invention
or a team of trained profes-
sionals, Autodesk welcomes
all creators.
