Yesterday June 6th, 2018 Autodesk held a series of events to officially open the new Portland office and introduce ourselves to Portland.
An employee event was held in the afternoon led by Autodesk CEO Andrew Anagnost with Autodesk’s entire CEO staff in attendance.Later in the evening we gave media tours and then held a grand opening event and ribbon cutting with invited guests including local leaders, the architect and contractor of the renovated building, media, and the Mayor of Portland Ted Wheeler.
About 200 employees relocated 6 weeks ago to this new renovated downtown office from our office located in the suburbs. Autodesk has had an office in the Portland area for over 25 years but many weren't aware that we were here so we made it very obvious we are Portland and proud to be a member of this city.
Special thank you to our local architects Mackenzie (Mackenzie Autodesk Project Page) and our construction company Fortis Construction amazing job creating an amazing new office…
