It's disheartening to me that Autodesk does not make an effort to represent their products as viable solutions for Home Builders at the IBS. This is an International event, and there is just as much Commercial exposure there as there is Residential so what gives? Surely AU isn't the do-all-end-all event for Autodesk marketing? Perhaps Autodesk feels like no one else can compete with their products so why bother, or maybe it's not even in their game plan to approach Home Builders because they are making too much money from the Commercial sector? I've been attending this show for the past 3 years and I continue to hear these kinds of comments as I run into clients looking for better solutions for Residential BIM Design. There is "Huge" interest right now as the Residential sector is beginning to come out of the "dark ages". It was encouraging to see several companies display Revit related productivity add-ons to assist with the Builder transition, but I don't understand why Autodesk can't be there themselves to underscore the message that their products & BIM are available for the Residential Sector also.
