Today's engineering web promises to ignite design at a pace never before seen in our history. With new tools for storing, sharing, & socializing design content; a new batch of engineering resources including cloud based revision management (think: Github), online design software, web based supply chain utilities...and coupled with the explosion in investment from sources like crowdfunding, a revitalized interest in hardware startups, better access to low cost components, off-shore and near-shore manufacturing, and related services; the designer's world is changing and changing fast!
On August 13th come meet the team from Zuken and hear Matt Berggren, former Director of Product at Altium and now Senior Director of Product at Supplyframe (parent to some 70 websites targeting engineers, designers, makers, hackers, entrepreneurs and the like) discuss 'gaming the new engineering web'. We'll take a look at the range of new tools, what's working, what to watch, what's a flop. We'll look at how to incorporate the new engineering web into your workflow (think: new utilities, plugins, APIs, content feeds) and how to get new products and even new companies off the ground with the resources available to designers today.
The opportunities to build killer products are unprecedented! New resources, utilities, & content abound and we'll make sense of these and show you how to fold these into your product development workflow. So whether it's complex products with tens or even hundreds of players in the process, or you're a hired gun, this discussion has something for everyone.
There will be food and drinks, great people and giveaways courtesy of Supplyframe and the team at Zuken!
