class="fancy-font">"A man with a new idea is a crank until he succeeds." – Mark Twain</blockquote> <h3>Who We Are</h3> <p>ASME helps the global engineering community develop solutions to real world challenges. Founded in 1880 as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, ASME is a not-for-profit professional organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, and skill development across all engineering disciplines, while promoting the vital role of the engineer in society. ASME codes and standards, publications, conferences, continuing education, and professional development programs provide a foundation for advancing technical knowledge and a safer world. In 2020, ASME formed the International Society of Interdisciplinary Engineers (ISIE) II & III LLC, a new for-profit subsidiary to house business ventures that will bring new and innovative products, services, and technologies to the engineering community.</p> </div> </div> <div class="container our-publications-content custom-cards"> <div class="row our-publications-main"> <div class="card
