Mechanical Engineering and Inventor Meetup

by Anton Fedoseyev, Content Strategist, at Autodesk on November 18, 2020

For the last year or so, each month we covered a new topic and new speakers to sit down and discuss common challenges in design and manufacturing, as well as best practices for addressing them. The main goals of the meetup at AU 2020 is to celebrate our community of mechanical engineers, designers, and Inventor users and also reflect on this year. Here are the key talking points from the meetup. Also, make sure to download the PDF version of the deck presented.

Autodesk Launched this new community program to create a global network of user groups and underpin this community with the tools and resources they need to:

  • Manage user groups
  • Grow their communities
  • Connect and collaborate with other leaders
  • Reach personal and professional goals
