Starting tomorrow, another (41st actually) AEC Hackathon will be held this time in beautiful Seattle Washington and I will be participating. The AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) Hackathon was created to give those designing, building, and maintaining our built environment the opportunity to collaborate with cutting edge technologies and its developers and designers. It has quickly become a community of innovators that include all elements of the built environment, not just AEC all around the world.

Unity is a Community Sponsor of our Hackathons and their AEC Team will be available as mentors and advisors at the Hackathon
Shaan Hurley, Autodesk Research - Shaan will participate in the hackathon as a mentor.
Autodesk and Unity announced a partnership at Autodesk University and the Gaming, CAD and AEC industries are converging as the building industry becomes a technology industry and the built environment evolves into an innovation platform.
This has become THE event for creating innovation for these industries so get engaged today! Our world faces fresh new problems that urgently need brilliant minds to solve them and this is the community that is improving how our world is designed, built, and operated.
The AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) Hackathon was created to give those designing, building, and maintaining our built environment the opportunity to collaborate with cutting edge technologies and its developers and designers. It’s a weekend of geeking at its finest for improving the industries that affect all that live or work in a house or building. It has quickly become a global community of innovators that include all elements of the built environment.
Cheers,
-Shaan
