It's a Hardware Renaissance

In this episode of Beyond 3D we talk to one of the pioneers of 3D CAD, Jon Stevenson, who helped turn GrabCAD into the largest online collaboration community in the 3D CAD world, and is now VP of Global Software at Stratasys. We talk about how file sharing has evolved, the new challenges that pop up as technologies get more advanced, and how hardware is cool again! And if you’re a company that has always done software, how do you manage getting into the hardware game quickly and successfully? Traditional manufacturers aren’t the only ones facing new challenges navigating trends such as IoT, 3D printing, AR, VR, etc. Snapchat is making video streaming glasses! What?!?! It’s a whole new world and it’s anyone’s game. And the pressure to iterate faster, reduce cycle times will only continue to increase – to the point where we are creating as we are producing, almost simultaneously. Insane? Maybe. But that’s where we’re headed. Listen to our latest edition of Beyond 3D and let us know what you think!
