Autodesk Makes Design Software Free to Schools Worldwide

**Public Company Information:** NASDAQ: ADSK **LAS VEGAS – (BUSINESS WIRE)** – In a major step towards democratizing access to professional design tools, **Autodesk, Inc.** (NASDAQ: ADSK) has announced it will offer its top-tier design, engineering, and entertainment software completely free* to students, educators, and academic institutions globally. This move marks a significant commitment by the company to empower the next generation of creators and innovators. With this initiative, over 680 million students and educators from more than 800,000 secondary and post-secondary schools in 188 countries now have unrestricted access to Autodesk's industry-leading software and services. Whether in classrooms, computer labs, or at home, these tools will play a pivotal role in fostering creativity and technical expertise among young minds worldwide. "As the way we design and build evolves, it's crucial to equip the workforce of tomorrow with the right tools," said Carl Bass, CEO of Autodesk. "By offering free professional-grade software to students and educators, we're ensuring that future designers, engineers, and architects are prepared for the challenges ahead." This global rollout follows Autodesk's earlier announcement of free software access to academic institutions in the U.S. under President Obama's ConnectED initiative. Since then, the company has progressively extended similar benefits to institutions across Asia-Pacific and Europe. In addition to its core software, Autodesk is also enabling schools to embrace cloud-based solutions like the **A360 collaboration platform**, while providing maintenance subscriptions at no cost. Young talents are already harnessing these tools to tackle real-world problems. For instance, middle school students are using **Fusion 360** to conceptualize and prototype prosthetic limbs, while university teams are leveraging **BIM 360 Glue** to develop sustainable housing projects. These examples underscore how accessible design tools are inspiring innovation both within and beyond traditional educational settings. Karen Kaun, founder of Makeosity, shared her excitement: "Our eighth graders are designing energy-efficient scooters for Kickstarter campaigns using Fusion 360. Imagine what other students could achieve if we integrated design thinking into more curricula!" To support educators in integrating these tools into their teaching, Autodesk provides free, project-based learning materials such as the **Digital STEAM Workshop** and **Design Academy**. Neelie Kroes, former Vice-President of the European Commission, praised the initiative: "Providing schools with access to cutting-edge technology levels the playing field for digital natives, empowering them to address real-world issues creatively while equipping them with essential 21st-century skills."

Deep Well Plates

The length and width of the deep well plate comply with the SBS international standards. The depth of wells is increased based on the appearance and size of normal plates (mainly 96-well and 384-well plates) to enlarge the volume of each well. In addition, the manufacturing material(currently mostly used is polypropylene (PP)) is changed and the surface treatment process has been improved for this series of deep well plates to adapt to its specific use range. The deep well plates of NEST have a variety of specifications, conforming with the needs of fully automatic workstations and experiments.
