Autodesk Forges Ahead with New Investments and Applications for Cloud Platform
In December, Autodesk made a big announcement: they would be creating a cloud-based platform and inviting developers to build applications and services on it. The Forge Platform was backed by a $100 million investment that would be used to support the developers and companies who signed on to build cloud-powered services with the platform. In the six months since its inauguration, the Forge Initiative has grown rapidly, and today Autodesk announced several major updates to the platform, as well as the first three investments in companies using Forge to develop solutions and services.
