Key Events
Come visit us during the exposition at Booth #101 for hands-on Ansys labs, Ansys giveaways, booth talks in our theatre, or to discuss anything Ansys Developer. We'll also be joined by our partners CADFEM and SimuTech Group.
Hands-on Labs
This year we have hands-on labs at our booth, and will be giving away prizes for those that give us a few minutes of time to share your feedback on using our developer tools. Come experience the broad capabilities simulation offers first-hand and take home some sweet loot for your efforts.
- Build a bridge? Sure!
- Simulate CPU cooling? YEP!
- Simulate the perfect free-throw form? Yep, we got that.
- Simulate giving an uncooperative cat a bath? OH HECK YES!
- And a whole bunch more that you can try yourself!
