What are the basics of Sam’s new company, called Beyond CAD? What happens to <em>Vision</em>, the software that has just been chosen as a recipient of an Epic Megagrant and that will serve as a better 3D Visualization tool for engineers? Does it mean the end of this podcast, in which we talk to professionals using 3D Visualization, public outreach and VR to make civil engineering look good?
