Collaboration Lessons from a Hardware Design CEO

How can hardware development firms deliver great products while keeping projects on schedule, on budget, and closely aligned with their clients?

Join us for a live conversation from Glassboard’s headquarters in Indianapolis, where Grant Chapman, Co-Founder and CEO of Glassboard, sits down with Justin Sears, Altium’s Head of Product Marketing for SaaS. They’ll discuss how Glassboard brings designers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and embedded software engineers together to support clients ranging from startups to Fortune 500 companies.

Discover how Glassboard uses the Altium platform to keep functional experts connected with their clients and explore the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of hardware development services.


What This Webinar Explores

  • How design service bureaus can deliver high-quality design services while maintaining the right level of client involvement.
  • How connected technology (and AI) can help free expert engineers to focus on their best work.
  • How hardware development leaders can keep their teams engaged and passionate about creating, even across hundreds or thousands of projects.
  • How collaboration can help teams work effectively with multiple clients and projects at the same time.
  • The emerging trends and changes shaping the design services industry.

Why Attend

Gain a firsthand perspective from the CEO of a hardware development firm that works across consumer products, medical devices, industrial applications, and mobility solutions.

You’ll hear how Glassboard approaches collaboration and uses the Altium platform to connect its multidisciplinary experts with clients throughout the product development process. The conversation will also explore the role of AI and technology in helping engineering teams work more effectively while maintaining the creativity and expertise that drive successful product development.

44:22 Digitally Connecting ECAD-MCAD Collaboration Key Takeaways Most companies still exchange ECAD and MCAD data as files (STEP, IDF, DXF, IDX), which is slow, error-prone, and leaves no lasting record of decisions. Altium MCAD CoDesigner replaces file exchange with a server-managed push-pull process, so only incremental updates move between the two domains after the first baseline. Every change is previewed, accepted or rejected, and retained with the project for its lifetime. Altium Agile Watch Video
