2016 Design Summit coming to the Windy City

Vectorworks' event will feature a sneak peek into the future of the company's software, as well as networking opportunities.

The 2016 Vectorworks Design Summit is taking Illinois’ Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park hotel by storm from April 25-27. With keynote presentations by Vectorworks executives and industry leaders, a sneak peek into the future of the software, and networking opportunities with product engineers, power users and third-party partners, attendees will leave feeling inspired to solve their next design challenge.

 
“The conference brings together a community of creative minds who rely on Vectorworks design software to conceptualize and transform their ideas into real experiences that can be shared with the world,” says Vectorworks’ Chief Marketing Officer Stewart Rom. “At our 2015 Design Summit, it was exciting to see so many people who share a passion for creative design, exchanging ideas, exploring concepts that give them a competitive edge and truly having a great time together. I know that our 2016 Design Summit will surpass expectations and deliver a meaningful three days.”
 
The standard registration fee for the event is $499, but with the “Get the Worm” special, fees are reduced to $199 for early registrants through Oct. 31. Design students and instructors who register before Oct. 31 may also take advantage of early registration discounts, paying $49 rather than the standard $99 rate.
