Autodesk’s three-part docuseries Built to Move<\/em> won the Episodic Award at Tribeca X<\/a>, the branded content arm of the Tribeca Film Festival<\/a>. The recognition reflects a belief at the heart of the project: that the most powerful brand work does not talk the loudest; it tells the human stories worth sharing with the world.<\/p>\n

As Schultz transitions fully into his role as founder and CEO of BioDapt, his collaboration with Autodesk will help BioDapt scale toward broader innovation across winter and summer para sports.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n

Built to Move<\/em> follows US Paralympian and entrepreneur Mike Schultz on his journey to his final competition earlier this year in Cortina, fueled by his passion for making that has defined every chapter of his life.  <\/span>After losing his leg in a 2008 snowmobile accident, he designed and built his own prosthetic leg capable of withstanding competitive snowboarding. In 2010, he founded BioDapt, which today supports approximately 90% of lower-limb athletes globally competing in Para Snowboard World Cup events and at other international competitions\u2014with about 25 athletes wearing his gear while competing alongside him in Cortina.  <\/span>The series was co-produced with TFA Group, the award-winning social impact agency and production studio founded by Jay Snyder and Mallory Weggemann, alongside brand partnerships agency Range Sports. TFA Group’s work centers on using storytelling to change how the world sees disability and to champion adaptive sports, the mission that Built to Move<\/em> brings to the screen. <\/p>\n

How Autodesk is continuing to support Para athletes<\/h3>\n

That work continues beyond the series. Earlier this year, Autodesk announced a partnership with BioDapt<\/a> to advance the next generation of high-performance prosthetics for para athletes preparing to compete in Los Angeles in 2028 and beyond. Building on months of collaboration in Autodesk Fusion, Autodesk’s AI-powered industry cloud for manufacturing, the work has already helped redesign and strengthen key components of Schultz’s competitive prosthetic systems used in his final competition, with no component failures reported since the updates. <\/span>According to the World Health Organization, more than 2.5 billion people worldwide need at least one assistive product, yet in some countries access can be as low as 3%. The challenge of building complex, high-performing products that are durable, repeatable, and scalable for more people is, at its core, a design and make challenge, the same one Autodesk helps manufacturers solve across industries, from adaptive equipment to next-generation consumer products, and more.  <\/span>Autodesk\u2019s mission is to empower everyone everywhere to design and make anything. Stories like Schultz’s show why that mission matters\u2014and who it is for.<\/p>\n

About Mike Schultz and BioDapt<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In 2008, Mike suffered a life-changing knee injury during a snowmobile competition resulting in the amputation of his left leg above the knee. Seven months later, Schultz was competing again and realized that the regular prosthetics couldn’t handle the competitive, rigorous sports his body at one time could handle. Mike not only engineered a durable and versatile mechanical knee that utilizes a patented linkage system and a FOX mountain bike shock, he realized the need for advancements in high-impact adaptive sports prosthetics that others could use. Creating high-impact adaptive sports prosthetics became BioDapt, Inc.\u2014the company Schultz founded in 2010 to help wounded soldiers, action sports athletes, and amputees wanting to return to an active lifestyle.  <\/span>In 2018, Schultz was named to the U.S. Paralympic team. He competed in Snowboard Boardercross and Banked Slalom, where he finished the season as the overall champion in both disciplines and won the gold and silver medals in Pyeongchang, Korea. That year, his teammates voted Mike to carry the U.S. flag during the opening ceremony. In July 2018, Schultz won the ESPY Award for Best Male with a Disability. Though he considered stepping away from elite competition, he returned to the global stage in 2022\u2014the same year his book “Driven to Ride” was published\u2014and came home with another silver medal. At the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games in Beijing, Mike provided 26 athletes from 11 countries BioDapt equipment. For the 2025 Snowboard World Cup and Paralympic circuit, 90% of lower limb amputees globally use BioDapt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
