“As we enter 2026, we are executing in line with our priorities and translating our strategy into measurable business outcomes.
Manufacturing industries remain resilient, supported by strategic client wins, while the mainstream market continues to perform well, driven by SOLIDWORKS. Beyond our core, CENTRIC delivered strong growth, reflecting the continued progress of our diversification strategy. In Life Sciences, we completed a landmark transaction, further expanded our platform reach, and strengthened our value proposition.
We are at a clear inflection point as AI redefines operational excellence. Customers are moving from experimentation to industrial-scale deployment and are seeking trusted, agentic AI platforms grounded in deep industrial know-how. This is where Dassault Systèmes stands apart.
Our commitment to 3D UNIV+RSES remains unwavering. We are accelerating both our AI roadmap and go-to-market execution, with a clear focus on monetization and scale. This quarter, we reached key milestones, including new Virtual Companion competencies and the unveiling of our industrial AI architecture, combining science-based Industry World Models with accelerated computing.
Overall, we remain focused on disciplined execution, continuous innovation, and delivering sustainable growth over time.”
