PROSTEP is PLATINUM Sponsors at Aras ACE2021

Leading ARAS systems integration partners, PROSTEP, is now a PLATINUM sponsor at this year’s ARAS ACE2021 event. As a longtime ARAS partner, PROSTEP gives ARAS users the engineering products and services to successfully increase productivity, reduce costs, and provide end-to-end traceability with an integrated engineering framework, OpenPDM.

As a result, this enables enhanced collaboration and speeds the workflow of information by providing the latest product information to all users.

Will Corona force us to progress?

What news to start the year with: according to the Bloomberg Index, Germany was the most innovative country in the world in 2020. But are we also the first when it comes to using innovations? Looking around, I unfortunately have the impression: No. While others see new technologies as a panacea, we prefer to deal with their risks and side effects. The question is whether Corona will change anything. It was raised by the FAZ in an article with the nice title “Fortschritt wider Willen” (progress against one’s will), which I recommend you to read.
