Introducing the AU Leadership Forum

Corporate executives are responsible for making decisions about when and how to adopt new business strategies and implement new technology. To help with this process, Autodesk University introduces a new program this year—the AU Leadership Forum

The AU Leadership Forum will offer business leaders the exclusive opportunity to have a conversation with people in similar positions, so they can exchange experiences and discover how other firms are meeting today’s design industry challenges. They will get a glimpse into future design technology to help position their firm to compete as these new technologies become differentiators. And, they will be able to network with their peers and with Autodesk executives to create powerful alliances and discuss future product direction.

The program includes main stage presentations by Autodesk CEO Carl Bass and VPs Callan Carpenter, Autodesk Global Subscription and Support, and Brian Mathews, VP, Autodesk Labs. A full day of breakout sessions is divided between informative presentations on business strategies, and interactive roundtable sessions where executives can engage with their peers to discuss solutions to the challenges facing 21st-century firms.

This exclusive event is limited to 400 people and registration is now open.

The forum grew out of our experiences with our prototype Design Technology Manager’s Conference. Last year’s Design Technology Manager’s Conference was a great success and we learned a lot from it. Thanks to everyone who attended and helped us refine this year’s AU Leadership Forum.
