Rand Worldwide announced that its Autodesk Platinum Partner division, IMAGINiT Technologies, is hosting Problem.Solved., a complimentary one day virtual event on April 24, 2014. Targeting designers, engineers, operations staff and executive management in the manufacturing, building and civil fields, sessions will highlight some of the issues caused by dysfunctional attempts at collaboration as well as provide tips, ideas and best practices for creating an environment that ensures cross functional and dispersed teams can effectively work together on complex projects.
“To be successful, today’s complex projects require collaboration between teams that are spread throughout different departments, geographies and partnering organizations,” says Tim Johnson, senior vice president, IMAGINiT Technologies. “Our lineup of thought leaders and experts from both Autodesk and IMAGINiT will focus on keeping projects on schedule and on budget through effective communication and collaboration. And because this is an online event, you can glean this knowledge from the convenience and comfort of your own office.”
In addition to the keynote and 15 sessions across the manufacturing, architecture, and civil sectors, there is time assigned specifically for networking, asking questions of IMAGINiT’s experts, and learning from fellow attendees.
