Come see it for yourself.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On November 12, WSCAD invites electrical engineers, engineering managers, and technical leaders from the Charlotte region to an evening at Brewers at 4001 Yancey. WSCAD CEO Dr. Axel Zein will show ELECTRIX AI<\/a>, the first AI-powered electrical CAD, live in action and give you an exclusive look at ELECTRIX OS<\/a>. Afterward, stay for craft beer, food, and conversation with fellow engineers and the WSCAD team.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”large” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Extra-Color-1″ solid_text_color_override=”#333333″ icon_family=”none” text=”Register for CHARLOTTE NOV 12″ margin_top=”24″ url=”https:\/\/lp.wscad.com\/us\/nov-12-charlotte-event\/?utm_source=newsblog&utm_medium=website&utm_campaign=2026_charlotte_cad-is-dead”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”20″ bottom_padding=”20″ text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1792751306578{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n

Electrical engineering is changing<\/h4>\n

According to The State of Electrical Engineering 2026, WSCAD’s premium industry report, 53.9% of electrical engineers say they have no time for innovation. AI is changing that. It’s no longer just about drawing schematics faster. AI Copilots already handle tasks inside the CAD workflow today. The next step goes further: complete technical solutions that engineers review and approve. That’s what we call Engineering Intelligence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1792750064332{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n
