There is a great AEC Hackathon event being held next week in beautiful Copenhagen Denmark. The goal is to break down the silos in AEC design, technology, and the workflows to result in better cities. I will be joined by two of the expertly skilled and amazing Autodesk consultants from our Autodesk Global Consulting Delivery organization. It’s going to be a lot of work and fun.
You should consider attending if you will be in Copenhagen end of next week, or just want to meet and talk innovation over a cup of strong Danish coffee.
Joining me are Paolo Emilio Serra and Jan Liska. These are two of the nicest, humblest, and skilled consultants. I am so grateful to have them join us and they will be a great resource to assist in the teams competing in the Hackathon as floating resources and mentors on what is possible. I will be featuring more of our amazing and unsung coding heroes on this blog who day in and day out make things happen and delight our largest global customers and solving their most difficult workflow challenges.over time. I also plan to share some of their expert tips and tricks to implementing and developing Autodesk tools and technologies.
