3DEXPERIENCE World, an event that brings together SOLIDWORKS users to connect, develop their 3D software skills, and celebrate technological advancement, took place this year in Houston, Texas from February 1-4. Complete with keynote speeches, hundreds of informational sessions, and an exhibition floor, the event is designed to inspire people with the capabilities of the SOLIDWORKS portfolio. ,
Unsurprisingly, AI took center stage at the show. On Tuesday, February 3, Dassault Systèmes and NVIDIA announced that they were partnering to build industrial AI platforms to power virtual twins. Throughout the event, SOLIDWORKS CEO Manish Kumar and Dassault Systèmes CEO Pascal Daloz made it clear that AI was not going to be an “add-on” to Dassault Systèmes capabilities, but at the core of the engineering technology. The CEO and Founder of NVIDIA, the high-profile Jensen Huang, gave a keynote speech and press conference on the second day of the event to further discuss the partnership.
