SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Who: Amar Hanspal, vice president of Autodesk Collaborations Solutions,
Jonathan Knowles, global collaboration strategist for Autodesk and Darren
Rizza, digital design director of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP will
speak at the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) 2006
Conference in Chicago, IL.

the right information when and where it is needed. The presentation will
outline best practices to meet the challenges of increasing complexity
and finite resources. For example, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP, one
of the world's leading architecture, urban design, engineering, and
interior architecture, is streamlining digital approval processes to help
eliminate communication delays, allowing project teams to work together
better and complete projects on time -- without compromising the

Collaborative Project Management solutions and Autodesk Design Review to
maintain its leadership in the industry.

The theme for CTBUH's 2006 Conference is Thinking Outside the Box --
Tapered, Tilted, Twisted Towers. In many cities around the globe, work
is underway on buildings that reject the conventional limitations of
skyscraper design, with structures that taper, tilt and twist in ways
never before imagined. The speakers, events and activities are dedicated
to exploring the challenges that face designers of irregularly shaped
structures, and understanding the promise they hold for the future of
tall buildings.
