Why Inventor LT is Only Available in North America and Other Scandals Explained

There’s an interesting video interview of Autodesk VP Andrew Anagnost now online at CCNtv. Anagnost is responsible for the manufacturing division’s R&D. During the course of the five minutes on camera he explains why only residents of North America can download Inventor, why functional design is important to Autodesk, and why Autodesk now has a direct sales force for the automotive industry.

There is also the obligatory Autodesk bashing of “big iron” PLM and a push for digital prototyping. Coors Field in Denver is an interesting backdrop for the interview. Irrelevant, but interesting.
