It’s always good to be recognised as the first for something, and that’s exactly what James Dack achieved earlier this year. Not only was it a first in the UK, but it was also a first by an Autodesk partner across EMEA. We later found out with the delivery of this award to our offices that James had gone one better and achieved the very first partner-led sale for a new Autodesk solution globally! Well done James – it’s a very impressive accolade to hold and one that recognises your efforts!
