"This Week in Engineering LIVE," is a new weekly webcast series to help the engineering-minded continue learning from experts in their fields in live Q&A sessions. The weekly 30-minute webcasts cover breaking news, engineering advancements, and provides valuable insights to what the future of design and manufacturing could look like. Hosted by manufacturing expert Jim Anderton and CAD Professional Roopinder Tara, the format is a live discussion and an interactive period where viewers can engage in the conversation. Past webinars have had a tremendous response and are available for streaming.
