Content from the largest virtual simulation event in the world is now available for on-demand viewing

PITTSBURGH, June 15, 2020 — (PRNewswire) —  More than 54,000 people from more than 160 countries registered for the inaugural Simulation World digital event hosted by  Ansys (NASDAQ: ANSS) last week. Simulation World is the world's largest virtual event focused on engineering simulation and was held in conjunction with the 16^th Annual LS-DYNA user group focused on finite element analysis. These events featured nearly 300 sessions and 200 speakers delivering 48 hours of continuous, cross-industry content across multiple time zones. All sessions are now available online for on-demand viewing through 2020.

Simulation World's executive-studded speaker lineup featured pioneering thought leaders from leading-edge Fortune 500 companies, startups, academic institutions and global news outlets. The speaker tracks covered emerging engineering topics including digital transformation, autonomy, digital twins, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and electrification. Sponsors included Microsoft at the diamond level, Autodesk, CADFEM and Hewlett Packard Enterprises at the platinum level, and 63 additional cutting-edge companies at the gold and silver levels.

The free and interactive virtual event also provided attendees with unique digital networking opportunities, connecting thousands of industry executives, engineers and manufacturing professionals across several digital networking lounges — sparking thoughtful engineering simulation discussions and suggestions for promoting diversity and inclusion within the engineering community. Additionally, attendees explored a virtual expo hall and engaged in live discussions with technology leaders from around the globe.
