2018 Vectorworks Design Summit to Deliver Two Can't-Miss KeynotesGlobal design and BIM software solutions provider Vectorworks, Inc. reveals its two can't-miss keynotes during the 2018 Vectorworks Design Summit: Antoine Predock, architect at Antoine Predock Architect, and Vectorworks CEO Dr. Biplab Sarkar. Vectorworks invites professionals, educators, and students in the AEC, landscape, and entertainment industries to attend the fourth annual event, which will take place November 4 - 6, 2018, at the Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass in Phoenix, Arizona. Led by Sarkar, the "Vectorworks CEO keynote" will take place on Monday, November 5, at 9:00am. Sarkar will focus on the company's strategic vision and direction regarding current trends and future technology. Additionally, attendees will get a closer look at the new technologies in the latest software version, Vectorworks 2019, from the research and development leaders that made them possible. "Unlike our competition that develops products for a single industry, we have the advantage of being able to innovate across multiple industries and serve a broad array of designers. This gives us an advantage in that we can see and embrace innovations that they cannot," said Sarkar. "Year after year, the Vectorworks Design Summit is the best place to learn how Vectorworks has advanced and to get up and running with our latest technology." On Tuesday, November 6, at 9:00am, Predock will deliver the second keynote, titled "Site Specificity and the Aura of Globalization." His speech will educate attendees on how they must tune into the context of the people and vibe of a place and how the connection to those conditions can lead to unbelievable things in design. Predock will share his experience balancing the physical and digital sides of design. Predock will also talk about his wide-ranging projects, from the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, which is now featured on the Canadian ten dollar bill, to the Northwestern University in Qatar (NU-Q), a College of Media and Communications, to the Luxe Lake Gateway and Art Center in Chengdu, China. A Vectorworks user for 25 years, Predock will explain how the software played a role in these projects. In addition to these two inspiring keynotes, the conference will include 90+ industry sessions and workshops, one-on-one tech support, networking events, and hands-on training. Multiple sessions will offer continuing education credits. Secure a spot at the ultimate training event and register today by visiting the URL below.
