The event will showcase the transformation that North American industries are going through driven by the use of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

Dassault Systèmes’ continuing leadership in the market is demonstrated by the growth in the number of customers both attending and presenting at the 3DEXPERIENCE Customer Forum.
