Given the unprecedented times we find ourselves in, business-as-usual will likely change beyond all recognition. Many experts now believe we will see a paradigm shift in the way business is conducted including emailing, calling, and instant messaging colleagues, customers, and partners more than ever before.
The use of simulation will also likely play a far great role in business going forward. For this reason, Ansys is hosting an online conference to help engineers and business experts learn how to use simulation to rapidly adapt designs and accelerate speed-to-market.
Ansys' Simulation World conference, will advance and further strengthen knowledge and understanding of simulation technology.
Simulation World will bring together industry thought leaders from a host of leading global organizations, including HP, Intel, Microsoft, and more (full speaker list here), to participate in talks and panels that reveal how simulation is advancing industry.
With virtual theatres, an online expo to explore, and a variety of cutting-edge simulation presentations, the event will be free to attend and attendees can join as many talks as they wish. So far, with one week to go, there are more than 28,000 academics, engineers, and businesspeople registered to attend.
The event will include discussions, presentations, and keynotes from thought leaders such as:
- John Hofmeister, former president of Shell Oil and current founder and chief executive for Citizens for Affordable Energy
- Sven Smeets, Volkswagen Motorsport Director
- Mallik Tatipamula, chief technology officer, Ericsson
- Pascal Zurlinden, director of factory Motorsports. Porsche Motorsport
- Kate Russell, technology reporter, and presenter on BBC Click
- Scott Parent, chief technology officer - Digital Solutions, Baker Hughes
