“We are excited by the opportunity presented by the solidThinking Inspire technology,” said José Solinho, owner of MechWorks Tecnologia in Brazil. “The value of structural optimization that offers ease-of-use and interoperability with all major CAD tools, enabling product teams to design lightweight in, instead of engineering weight out, will appeal to both existing and new customers.”

Michele Mozzo of MR Services in Italy said, “solidThinking Evolve is a fantastic 3D modeling tool for the creative community. A tool that provides both organic surface modeling and parametric control gives designers the modeling freedom they require, while enabling the fast design exploration they truly desire. We’re anticipating significant demand for Evolve in our region.”
