Autodesk has introduced its Clean Tech Partner Program at the Clean Tech Open (CTO) Renewable Energy Symposium. The program awards “seed” grants consisting of free bundles of Autodesk software to early-stage, clean technology companies working to solve some of the world’s most pressing environmental challenges
“We understand the significant role design plays in creating a sustainable future,” said Lynelle Cameron, director of sustainability for Autodesk. “The Autodesk Clean Tech Partner Program is designed to accelerate innovation and leadership in the clean tech market. As part of our ongoing commitment to global sustainability, Autodesk will be working together with emerging clean tech companies to help bring their ideas to market faster and more cost-effectively.
Recipients of the Autodesk Clean Tech software grant will receive a collection of Autodesk’s top applications:
Autodesk Inventor Professional
Autodesk Showcase Professional
Autodesk Vault Manufacturing
Autodesk Navisworks Manage
Autodesk Revit Architecture
Autodesk Alias Design
Each grant has a retail value of up to US$150,000, and will include up to five full commercial licenses of each application.
“Autodesk and the Clean Tech Open are committed to enabling green entrepreneurs expand upon their innovative ideas,” said Michael Santullo, co-founder of the CTO. “Many participants in the Clean Tech Open are first-time entrepreneurs - they have a great idea, but could really use some assistance. This is where Clean Tech Open steps in: we connect entrepreneurs with the expertise, talent and funding necessary to create successful, sustainable businesses.”
