Campaign Site to Promote SOLIDWORKS Cloud Apps for Students

This project aimed to customize the Superheroes marketing campaign website, originally initiated by the commercial marketing team in 2021–2022, and tailor it for education to promote Cloud Apps aligned with the roles and apps available to students for six months.

The campaign taps into user nostalgia by personifying the design roles in the 3DEXPERIENCE Works portfolio and SOLIDWORKS Cloud offer as comic book superheroes. Fun and eye catching animated videos mixed with informative and interesting technical demos demonstrate the value of the browser-based design tools with a sense of humor and fun. A dynamic microsite displaying the characters and stories take the viewer through a real-world workflow, and ends with a call to action to try 3DEXPERIENCE Works for themselves and start using the SOLIDWORKS Cloud Offer.

SOLIDWORKS Apps for Kids

SOLIDWORKS Apps for Kids is an online application that introduces children ages 4–14 to design and engineering through fun, easy-to-use tools. It includes web-based apps for sketching, modeling, styling, and presenting—encouraging creativity and hands-on learning in a playful digital environment.

Teachers can also use it in the classroom by integrating the apps into their curriculum to support STEM education and engage students in early design thinking..
