Paying it Forward

One of these schools is Dunaújvárosi SZC Bánki Donát Technikum, a technical institute in Dunaújváros, Hungary that was previously rooted to AutoDesk products such as AutoCAD and Inventor. After Enterprise Group presented their quality of support, level of knowledge, and mentorship program the school decided it was best to make the switch.

The Difference

Ákos Vadász is a first generation engineer, who showed great interest for engineering as early as primary school where he loved drawing design plans for ships. He started his secondary education at Beszédes József MMIK, Magyarkanizsa-Serbia, where he learned Solid Edge. This is the point where Enterprise Group PLM got connected with him through the mentorship program. Later, he took part off several competitions, such as János Neumann International Product Design, and won awards with his Solid Edge knowledge. By the time of his higher-education studies at Budapest University of Technology and Economics he gained so much experience with Solid Edge that he got exempt from CAD studies.

The strong relationship and the professional support of Enterprise Group stayed with him through his higher education as he also participated in the Solid Edge Challenge Competition regularly. Moreover, he spent his internship at the Enterprise Group. Having graduated from university the company helped him find his first job and they stayed in touch. Now he is senior mechanical design engineer at Vegyterv Ltd. and he still attends many Enterprise Group events and webinars.
