A forum has been created for global leaders in the aerospace and defense industries to share ways to accelerate their businesses and enhance their competitiveness.

Dassault Systèmes announced on the 21st that it will hold 'AirXperience 2021', a virtual event introducing insights into the latest technologies in the aerospace and defense industry, from the 22nd to the 25th (French local time).

The aerospace industry is facing a crisis due to rising customer expectations and program complexity. This virtual event will showcase industry leaders' insights on how to accelerate business and enhance competitiveness for aerospace innovators seeking to deliver safe, sustainable transportation and optimal mobility experiences.

Experts from Airbus Defence and Space, Hemeria, Liebherr, Sogeclair, Spirit AeroSystems, and ThrustMe will join David Ziegler, Vice President, Aerospace & Defense Industry at Dassault Systèmes, in livestream sessions on the aerospace supply chain, defense, and space.

Each session will focus on how digital innovation and the adoption of digital collaboration platforms, such as Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform, are supporting business innovation across the entire process of planning, design, manufacturing, testing, validation, and maintenance of new aerospace vehicles.

The topics of each session include: △ eliminating the silos in the aerospace industry's supply chain, shifting to a value network-centric approach to increase data transparency, and establishing a collaborative environment that transcends organizations and locations; △ supporting defense companies in achieving rapid and accurate decision-making, mission plan integration, enhanced agility, and smart combat sustainability; and △ shortening the development period for successful space launches and deployments of rockets and satellites.

Additionally, this agenda introduces use cases of the 3D Experience platform. Dassault Systèmes customers Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), Ball Aerospace (US), MTorres (Spain), Spirit AeroSystems (US), and Turkish Aerospace Industries will share how they are using the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to accelerate innovation and achieve efficiency and flexible productivity.
