About Steven Cobert

My personal mission is to deliver the highest quality surfaces to customers, on-time and on-cost as well as training and mentoring others to achieve the same.Within Geodigm I have trained over 200 users in Ford, Bentley, Land-Rover, Bertrandt & others. Geodigm managed and delivered the A class surfaces for the exterior of the Ford GT Mk 1 to a strict 3 month deadline. I have personally trained, mentored and managed multiple teams of new users for Jaguar Land Rover and Lotus, created A class and concept surface complete exterior models for many prototype and low-volume / bespoke vehicles, including the Modec Electric van. I have also worked on Autodesk Alias & ICEM Surf concept and A class surface models across many Automotive companies & Design houses, encompassing every aspect of exteriors & interiors as well as work in aircraft interiors, boats and industrial design products.I have been passionate about surface modelling throughout my career; from 1984 when I joined BAe as an Aerodynamic Research Engineer where I developed a polygonal modelling system for aircraft configurations, through 1988 at Rover Group where I investigated CADDS NURBS, and trained others in their use. Then as the ICEM Surf Support Engineer for Topologies, finally forming Geodigm in 1999 to continue providing industry with ICEM Surf & Autodesk Alias expertise & training in A Class Surfacing, Concept Modelling & Reverse Engineering. I conceived of and developed SURF+, a software app for ICEM Surf, delivering up to 30% productivity benefits to the user. This was presented at the Dassault Systèmes User Conference in Hanau, 2018.I've developed a subscription training resource https://learnsurfacing.thinkific.com/ teaching Alias and ICEM Surf skills to new users.At the end of 2020 I supported Kia Motors and their suppliers on-site in South Korea as an Alias Application Specialist.Most recently I have been appointed to the Board of Advisors for a number of companies:Fresco Motors ASHeliosphereStart-up in the Green Energy space - confidential at the moment
