I might be a little bit biased, but the General Sessions\u00a0is always my favorite part of 3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE World. It\u2019s the only time when everyone gathers together in one space and can truly appreciate our passionate community and collectively celebrate each other. Imagine what we can all accomplish together to improve the world we live in. Could we provide clean, renewable, and sustainable energy to power the entire world?<\/p>\n

We have a great lineup of speakers this year for 3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE World in Dallas next month. Last year we moved the closing General Session to the afternoon to wrap up three days of conversations, collaboration, and celebration with the people who make up the 3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE\u00ae Works universe. I think it\u2019s a great way to end the event, so that won\u2019t change.<\/p>\n

On Monday, we\u2019ll set the stage (literally and figuratively) for the next three days of strategy, product innovation and community conversations. In addition to a wide range of customers who will share their stories, we will welcome our new CEO, Pascal Daloz to the stage. He joined Dassault Syst\u00e8mes in 2001 as Vice President of R&D in charge of sales development. Bernard Charles, who will remain in his role as Executive Chairman of the Board, will share his vision for the future. SOLIDWORKS and 3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE Works leadership will also provide their insights into what\u2019s coming up this year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re excited to have Dr. Lonnie Johnson<\/strong> join us during Monday\u2019s General Session. Best known as the inventor of the Super Soaker water gun, Dr. Johnson also holds over 100 patents, the vast majority of which are energy-related. A leading developer of the next two generations of battery technology, Ceramic Solid-State Batteries and Lithium-Air batteries, he was awarded the “Breakthrough Award” from Popular Mechanics<\/em> magazine for an invention that converts heat directly into electricity. He is also involved in the Johnson STEM Activity Center, which empowers students from diverse and underserved communities through exposure to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).<\/p>\n

We listened to your feedback and brought back Tuesday morning\u2019s General Session to preview some of the new advancements in our design, simulation, data management, and manufacturing solutions. Discover how across disciplines we can pursue common goals and collectively imagine the possibilities ahead.<\/p>\n

SOLIDWORKS and 3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE Works leaders will showcase the technology that addresses customer needs today and in the future with stories from companies, such as Arthur Bus<\/a>, Flowserve<\/a>, Nagano Automation<\/a>, Proteus Motion<\/a> and Viscon Group<\/a>. We will also be joined by Aneesa Muthana<\/strong>, CEO of Precision Grinding and CNC Machining Businesses, a hands-on leader with a mission to increase diversity in manufacturing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tuesday will also feature a deeper dive into those areas with Domain Sessions on Design, Simulation, and Manufacturing. Head over to the Reseller Room (Hall D) for all three, or join the topic that interests you the most, and attend user sessions on your favorite topics at other times.<\/p>\n

Times for the domain-specific general sessions, which take place in Exhibit Hall A<\/strong>, are:<\/p>\n
