Fusion + Naya: End-to-End Workflow for Physical Products
The next decade of physical product design will be defined by what teams choose to automate. Modern design tools should not just make things happen faster. They should free teams to focus on taste-making, creation, and human intuition, while quietly handling the repetitive work no one wants to do. This session explores how end-to-end product workflows, powered by AI and human collaboration, are enabling teams to design faster, more efficiently, and better for the world. See how Autodesk Fusion and Naya complement each other across the full design process, from first concept to manufacturing, and walk away with a strategic view of how Fusion and Naya enable a better design process, and where the next year of AI and workflow is heading.

Why Universities Aren't Teaching the Offsite Industry We're Building And the Solution
The offsite construction industry is scaling, but the graduates entering it have been trained for a world of bespoke ETO delivery. No accredited degree program teaches configure-to-order workflows, manufacturing product definition, modular interface standards, or offsite logistics. The industry is hiring for skills that schools don't yet teach. This session will present the MBI-CfOC Offsite Construction Accreditation Initiative a joint effort between the Modular Building Institute and the Center for Offsite Construction to establish the first accredited degree pathway for the industrialized construction workforce. With materials nearly complete and first accreditation discussions happening, let's understand what the next generation of offsite-trained talent will know, and how to build a firm that can absorb them.

Does Your Workstation GPU Still Make the Cut? How Local AI Is Raising the Bar for Autodesk Workflows.
The workstation GPU that handles your Revit models and 3ds Max renders may be showing its age not because Autodesk got more demanding, but because AI did. Local AI tools are rapidly becoming part of how design and engineering professionals work: generating concepts, automating repetitive tasks, and running inference without sending sensitive project data to the cloud. These workloads are GPU-hungry, and they compete directly with your Autodesk applications for the same critical resource: graphics memory. In this session, we'll give Autodesk users a practical framework for understanding GPU memory requirements across the workflows that matter to them. You'll see how real Autodesk applications perform under varying VRAM configurations, what happens when local AI enters the picture, and where the common pain points emerge. We'll also look at what the next generation of workstation GPUs brings to the table and whether an upgrade is warranted or premature.
