List of CAD companies

Many CAD companies have produced CAD software from the 1970s through to the present. Some of them are listed below. The list is far from complete or representative, since the CAD business landscape is very dynamic: almost every month new companies appear, old companies go out of business, companies split and merge. Sometimes some names disappear and reappear again.
