Graphisoft’s £1/4 billion “Built Environment Future Foundations”

Keywords: Computer aided design, Universities

Graphisoft, the supplier of 3D model-based software and technological services for the built environment, has established “Built Environment Future Foundations” comprising a donation of over £253 million worth of software, support and study curriculum programmes to British and Irish universities, colleges and other academic institutions, over five years. Students will be given a free of charge download of the full and current version of Graphisoft’s market leading, 3D parametric design software – Archicad. This bold move is obviously an attempt to supplant the current market leader Auto-CAD.
