The Future of Engineering is in the Cloud: Powering Innovators with Cloud-Based Simulation

Engineering software in the cloud confers multiple advantages for even the smallest startup.

This episode of The Engineering Roundtable is brought to you by Ansys.

The future is built largely by engineers and designers with the talent and skill to take an idea and turn it into the products and services that enhance life for all of us. Great ideas come from individuals and from gigantic corporations, but the ability to take insight and turn it into marketable products confers a significant advantage on larger corporations. Scale matters, and the meme of the long hours and high stress world of the startup is based in reality.

But does it have to be? What if individuals and small firms had access to the same powerful engineering tools used by multinational corporations, and were freed from the constraints of limited capital and a modest headcount? That’s the promise of cloud connected engineering software, which has implications far beyond simply remote work.
