Autodesk has contributed $1 million to Group Effort Initiative (GEI), an organization focused on creating a pipeline for members of underrepresented communities to get real experience that supports lasting careers within the entertainment industry.

On Tuesday, Ryan Reynolds will join Autodesk Chief Operating Officer Steve Blum in Las Vegas for a fireside chat at Autodesk University, the company’s annual design and make conference.

With Autodesk’s support, GEI is preparing an adaptable and resilient workforce.
