solidThinking’s European Value-Added Reseller Community Expands

We’re pleased to announce the signing of Holland Engineering Consultants (http://www.hecbv.nl) as a value-added reseller. Holland Engineering Consultants (HEC) will market, sell and support solidThinking’s 3D NURBS-based concept-design software throughout Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg.

With this expansion in our software’s availability, European designers, engineers and architects will have an additional local point of contact for trying solidThinking solutions and for software support.  Its new relationship with solidThinking represents an extension of HEC’s vision, which is to provide clients with a competitive advantage during product development by helping them implement the right tools to create better designs in less time and at a lower cost.

To introduce solidThinking to its clients, HEC hosted a successful hands-on workshop in the Benelux region on June 2. HEC held two sessions involving solidThinking presentations and practical exercises of the software. Session participants were impressed with the speed of the software, as well as its ConstructionTreeTM technology, real-time rendering capabilities and presentation applications. To read the HEC event report (in Dutch) click here.

We look forward to working with HEC to help its clients experience solidThinking’s benefits and will keep you informed of upcoming events in the region as well as other updates on our channel partners. For a map of partners closest to you, click here.
