NEW YORK CITY (CGI ANNUAL MEETING) — At this week’s Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Annual Meeting, Autodesk announced the launch of its new **Technology Impact** program, designed to support nonprofits that use design as a force for good. The initiative will provide free software donations to selected organizations working on global challenges, with an initial commitment of $7.5 million in software value for the first year.
“By giving nonprofits access to our top-tier design tools, we’re helping them do more with less,†said John Cary, Executive Director of the Autodesk Foundation. “Our goal is to empower at least 500 organizations in the first year, from those building schools and hospitals to those developing life-saving medical devices.â€
Autodesk has long supported social innovation through its software, offering tools to schools, clean tech startups, and nonprofit groups worldwide. With the Technology Impact program, eligible nonprofits can receive two licenses of professional design software, including the Autodesk Product Design Suite Premium, Building Design Suite Premium, Infrastructure Design Suite Premium, and Entertainment Creation Suite Ultimate. Applications are open online at [www.autodesk.com/technologyimpact](http://www.autodesk.com/technologyimpact).
One of the first recipients of the program is MASS Design Group, based in Boston. Known for its award-winning Butaro Hospital in Rwanda, the organization uses Autodesk tools to collaborate with local communities and builders. “These tools help us bring our designs to life and ensure they’re rooted in the culture and environment where they’re built,†said Alan Ricks, COO of MASS Design Group. “It’s not about what a place lacks, but what it has to offer.â€
Autodesk empowers people to imagine, design, and create a better world. From architects and engineers to digital artists and students, our software fuels creativity and drives progress.
