Since SOLIDWORKS users can benefit from the robust <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERINCE Works product innovation portfolio in different ways, we want to give attendees a choice in the topics they want to learn more about. The three sequential sessions will showcase the technology that addresses customer needs today and in the future with real customer stories. Stay in the main plenary room for all three, or join the topic that interests you the most, and attend user sessions on your favorite topics at the other times.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>9:00 am &#8211; The Future of Design: <\/strong>SOLIDWORKS product management will deliver updates on the design and collaboration tools that provide the flexibility to work in any environment \u2013\u2013 desktop, cloud-connected, or pure cloud. Learn about the solutions that can help you develop the next great high-quality product, and bring that product to market, while meeting customer demands.<\/li>\n<li><strong>10:45 am &#8211; Simulation Without Limits: <\/strong>Discover how adding simulation to the product development process becomes a design enabler and removes guesswork. The comprehensive simulation solutions available to all SOLIDWORKS designers and engineers address many challenges throughout the product development process. It\u2019s not just for PhDs, simulation helps you make better decisions and reach optimal designs faster.<\/li>\n<li><strong>1:15 pm &#8211; Futureproof Your Manufacturing: <\/strong>A diverse panel of experts will discuss how the industry can overcome the growing skill gap and resulting labor shortages and how technology can also help. Hear from a self-taught SOLIDWORKS user and his daughter on their family\u2019s journey from homelessness to business success in manufacturing by learning how to manufacture parts for others. Discover how a 60-year-old manufacturing company, Behlen Manufacturing, is adopting new technologies and processes\u2014Lean principles, smart manufacturing, and the adoption of the virtual twin\u2014to move to the forefront of industry 4.0.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-51437 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-470x615.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"217\" height=\"285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-470x615.jpg 470w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-229x300.jpg 229w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-768x1006.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-1173x1536.jpg 1173w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-1564x2048.jpg 1564w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-728x953.jpg 728w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/liv20boeree20-20headshot20-20jean20jacket-scaled.jpg 1955w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 217px) 100vw, 217px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The closing General Session will take Wednesday, February 15, 2023 at 1:15 pm<\/strong> CST to wrap up three days of conversations, collaboration, and celebration with the people and businesses who make up the SOLIDWORKS and <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE\u00ae Works universe.
