What You're Going to Miss at Forge DevCon If You're Not Going (it's not too late)

The Autodesk Forge Developer Conference (Forge DevCon) is the largest gathering of design and engineering software developers in the world. This year we are partnering with Autodesk University (AU). No longer do you need to choose between DevCon and AU. You can do both. Forge DevCon will be held on Monday/Tuesday, November 13-14, 2017 at The Venetian Resort Conference Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

For those attending, here's what to expect:

There's also a Forge Partner Zone:
