Day 1 of 3DEXPERIENCE World kicked off with powerful talks from SOLIDWORKS and Dassault Systèmes leadership. Attendees heard a compelling presentation exploring the future of technology and practical insights drawn from major industry projects. Engineers learned how to apply emerging technologies to address challenging global issues and drive continued progress. We held our first Career Day, with sessions focused on building not just a better SOLIDWORKS user, but a better engineer.

SOLIDWORKS CEO Manish Kumar took the main stage on Day 2 to reveal critical software updates. These updates help you bring your ideas to market faster, smarter and at scale. Customers shared how they successfully integrated AI into their design workflows to achieve real engineering outcomes. The session highlighted new artificial intelligence tools built to help engineers save time, reduce manual effort and improve design accuracy. It was also our second annual Women in Technology Day, which started with a networking breakfast and continued after General Session with Women in Technology panels and meetups.

We wrapped up three-days of 3DEXPERIENCE World by celebrating our collective engineering innovation footprint. The closing session featured a unique blend of engineering, art and storytelling. It emphasized that strong engineering principles provide a solid foundation for creativity. Day 3 is our Student Day. The 2026 AAKRUTI International Student Design Competition Winners were announced on stage, a great way to wrap up the event..
