Analyst Coverage: Simon Holloway
Dassault Systèmes was established in 1981 as a spin-off from Dassault Aviation. The Company entered into a distribution agreement with IBM the same year and started to sell its software under the CATIA brand. The initial target was 3D modelling for product design. As they developed their product through working with their clients, it led them to develop a related product Lifecycle Management solution. From 1999, Dassault Systèmes undertook a series of targeted acquisitions expanding its software applications portfolio to include digital manufacturing, realistic simulation, product data management and enterprise business process collaboration.
The Company’s software applications and services span design from ideation, to early 3D digital conceptual design drawings to full digital mock-up; virtual testing of products; end-to-end global industrial operations, including manufacturing management to operations planning & optimisation; and in marketing and sales from digital marketing and advertising to end-consumer shopping experience.
