Autodesk to Show Sustainable Design at 2007 Greenbuild Expo
SAN
RAFAEL,
CA, Oct 25, 2007 - Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK) today announced that it
will be a Silver sponsor of the
2007 Greenbuild Conference Expo, Nov. 7-9 at McCormick Place in Chicago,
and will host three events for media, customers and attendees. The Autodesk
booth in the expo hall will also be constructed using sustainable materials
including chairs made from 98% post recycled airplane aluminum and rubber
flooring made from 76% post recycled tires. This will be Autodesk's third
consecutive year as a sponsor and exhibitor at the Greenbuild Expo and the
company invites interested media to attend the Autodesk events at this
year's show.
At Greenbuild Expo 2006 in Denver, Autodesk announced that it had entered
into a strategic relationship with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC)
to expand the use of technology to increase mainstream adoption of
sustainable design and green building. The first result of this relationship
is the new Autodesk Sustainable Design Curriculum, developed in consult with
the USGBC's Formal Education Committee. The first version of this curriculum
will be unveiled at the USGBC Formal Education Committee's Educator Summit
on Nov. 6 which will bring together representatives from Autodesk, members
of the USGBC's Formal Education Committee, industry and academic leaders as
well as students to discuss best practices to advance sustainable design
education and the required skills and knowledge architecture and design
students need to succeed in professional practice.
Phil Bernstein, Autodesk Vice President of Industry Strategy and
Relations, will speak at the opening plenary session on Nov. 7 and provide
an update on Autodesk's ongoing collaboration with the USGBC. Following this
announcement, Autodesk will host a press conference at 12 p.m. in the press
conference room to further discuss results of the USGBC relationship and
reveal the findings from the 2007 Autodesk/AIA Green Index, an annual survey
that measures how American Institute of Architects (AIA) member architects
in the United States are practicing sustainable design as well as their
opinions about the green building movement.
At Chicago's Field Museum on the evening of Nov. 7, the USGBC and
Autodesk will co-host the premiere of the Autodesk-sponsored e2 design
season two-documentary series, airing on PBS this fall. Media and invited
guests will view an episode titled, "Architecture 2030." which examines how
government officials, architects, regulatory agencies and building suppliers
can avoid a global warming crisis through policy change and education. The
screening will be followed by a panel discussion of industry leaders
including Ed Mazria of Architecture 2030, Rick Fedrizzi of the USGBC, Phil
Bernstein and moderator Susan Szenasy, editor of Metropolis magazine, who
will discuss the future of sustainable design practice.
