Since 1984, Autodesk continues to be a recognized leader in BIM and an innovator of technology used by architects, engineers, and construction teams globally. I believe Virgin Hyperloop One and Autodesk together will help to tackle the challenges ahead.” We have a choice to either accommodate the expected growth or become overwhelmed by it. “With the global population expected to hit 10 billion by 2050, the way infrastructure is designed and constructed, and how we move people and goods, must change. “Autodesk technology is in the DNA of much of the built world everywhere – and I mean everywhere,” said Nicolas Mangon, Vice President of AEC Business Strategy at Autodesk.


Its depressurized tube infrastructure eliminates the impacts of air-drag and friction, requiring less energy and cost to operate, and allows travel to occur at exceptionally high speeds. Virgin Hyperloop One’s visionary technology features depressurized tubes that carry on-demand passenger or cargo pods at speeds of up to 670 miles per hour, powered by magnetic-levitation and electric propulsion. “Together, with our global teams and shared customers, Virgin Hyperloop One and Autodesk will explore ways to optimize hyperloop routing and operations – in a way that not only propels the hyperloop industry forward, but also has ancillary benefits to more traditional forms of transportation such as railway and highway route optimization.” “Virgin Hyperloop One is pushing the boundaries of transportation efficiency,” said Josh Giegel, Co- Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Virgin Hyperloop One. (NASDAQ: ADSK) and Virgin Hyperloop One, a leader of hyperloop technology and the evolution of how the world moves people and goods, announced an alliance to explore new opportunities to extend the value of Building Information Modeling (BIM) for transportation route optimization and improved digital engineering and construction workflows.
