Whether you’re just starting your path to inventing tomorrow’s new killer hardware product or you’re a seasoned entrepreneur with several successes under your belt, we spend a lot of time thinking about the steps to inventing and getting a product to market as quickly as possible. Determining which software tools are best to design and create and what are the right “do’s and don’ts” to consider so we can accelerate our success. As a new inventor, navigating through the ocean of decisions can be overwhelming and using the right engineering tools to make products can be a challenging task.

Stephen Samuel, CEO of Design Visionaries, is going to take us through the process of selecting the right engineering tools for Computer Aided Design (CAD), and Product Data Management (PDM), throughout your product life cycle to drive product development.

We will walk through the product and industrial design process, break down complex problems, and plan for future product development. Industry product cycles are increasingly swift and planning for engineering productivity is key.
