**SAN FRANCISCO – (BUSINESS WIRE)** – We’re thrilled to announce that Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK), alongside the Obama Administration, the U.S. Department of Defense, UI Labs, and other key organizations, is joining forces to support the newly launched Digital Lab for Manufacturing based in Chicago. This initiative, led by UI Labs and involving industry leaders, universities, government agencies, and community stakeholders, aims to establish itself as the nation's premier research institute for Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation. By fostering greater access to cutting-edge technology, research, and resources, the Digital Lab seeks to rejuvenate America’s manufacturing sector.
“We are incredibly honored to partner with the U.S. Government and UI Labs on this groundbreaking initiative,†said Buzz Kross, Senior Vice President of Design, Lifecycle, and Simulation at Autodesk. “This marks a pivotal moment in revitalizing American manufacturing. The Autodesk team is fully committed to offering educational programs, technical expertise, and tools that will drive innovation and growth within our industries.â€
As a cornerstone of President Obama’s efforts to strengthen U.S. manufacturing under the National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI), the Digital Lab for Manufacturing will leverage both innovative technology and collaborative partnerships to fast-track advancements in industrial productivity. Autodesk’s software solutions will play a critical role in supporting the Consortium’s initiatives in education, workforce development, and research. This aligns perfectly with our ongoing mission to democratize access to advanced tools for students, entrepreneurs, and organizations across multiple sectors.
Just weeks ago, Autodesk announced an expansion of its **Design the Future** program, making $250 million worth of 3D design software, curriculum materials, training, and certifications available to every middle and high school in the United States during 2014. This initiative underscores our dedication to empowering future generations with the skills they need to succeed in today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape.
