Technology
Today I’m joined by two experts in the Design and Product Development industry, Derek England, NX Product Manager at Siemens Digital Industries, and John O’Connor, Director of Marketing and Product Strategy. As the design industry evolves, so too do the complexities that arise within product innovation. The Aerospace and Defense field is just one example of how iterations within new technology can play a part in both advancing and limiting these creations. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the world of Aerospace design, review key trends that John and Derek have seen as product innovators, as well as discuss how emerging technology and design approaches are influencing the manufacturing process. We also talk about how younger designers are utilizing newer technologies and how their methods differentiate from engineers in older demographics.For further insight into this discussion and to learn more about the work that John and Derek do at Siemens, tune in to Episode 7 of Next Generation Design!
