Dassault Systèmes (or 3DS) is a multinational corporation, which develops software for 3D product design, simulation, manufacturing and other 3D related products. The company is active in the following areas: manufacturing, life sciences and healthcare, infrastructure and cities.

 

 

 

Recently, 3DS has been rapidly developing its Virtual Twin technology and services: before companies can create a product or start a process, it can be created in virtual space: for example, a robot can be 'built' virtually, its entire environment simulated, its actions modelled, and how it will 'behave' when it is manufactured, used or exposed to various disturbances.

 

This is a promising technology, and 3DS aims to integrate it into the medical field by preventing or better predicting how to treat various diseases.

 

 

 

With more than 23,000 employees, 3DS ranks among the top 20 software companies in the world in terms of sales, profits, assets and market value.

 

John Kitchingman, Vice President of the corporation, and Daniel Pero, Nordic and Baltic Partner Sales Manager Senior Specialist, were accompanied during their visit to the FTMC by Gintaras Vilda, Director of the Manufacturing Innovation Valley, and representatives of Lithuanian software company IN RE – Dr. Vladimir Popov, Director, and Arūnas Urbšys, Projects Development Director.

 

Dassault Systèmes is the technological partner of the Manufacturing Innovation Valley, and the French multinational is represented by IN RE in Lithuania. They are the operator of the 3DS service, the 3D Experience Excellence Center, a Virtual Twin laboratory.
