a global concept design and styling software company, today
announced that it will participate at the href="www.newdesigners.com/">New Designers 2011 Show

the academic design community, which offers us a great platform to
expose our solutions directly to the future designers who will help
shape the industry,” said Jim Hassberger, vice president of
business development for solidThinking. “solidThinking’s attendance
at New Designers is the first step in a newly established program
to support design institutes in the U.K. The show presents not only
