Corporate Update from Jani Ojala, CEO

I am thrilled to share groundbreaking news that marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Ansys and our valued customers.

In a significant move, Ansys will join forces with Synopsys (www.synopsys.com), creating a formidable powerhouse in silicon-to-systems design solutions.

This announcement comes as a natural next step for both companies, building upon the successful and growing strategic partnership, initially established in 2017. This collaboration is not just about a business transaction; it’s about uniting two innovation-focused and customer-centric companies to empower the innovations that are revolutionizing the way people work and play. The combination will create a powerful and comprehensive product portfolio, laying the foundation for the most crucial next-generation technology initiatives.

We understand you may have questions, and we are here to address them. Rest assured, your dedicated team at EDRMedeso remains committed to providing you with the highest quality products and software to solve your most challenging problems today, and in the future. We are excited by the new potential we have in our grasp which will enable innovation for even greater and smarter products.

For those who have previously enjoyed the benefits of strategic partnerships, get ready for an even more exciting journey ahead. This move is not just an important milestone; it is the first step in a journey that we believe will unlock significant benefits for our customers.

And that isn’t the only exciting news I have to bring you.

EDRMedeso continues its growth strategy in 2024 based on value adding and game changing technology offerings combined with knowledge transfer to our customers. Through our achievements and continued commitment, we have been recognized as Ansys EMEA Partner of the Year and consequently awarded Ansys Apex partner status – an accolade bestowed on only 5 partners worldwide.

We recognize many of our customers have a strong requirement for systems integration and bringing various engineering disciplines together to simulate complete product – an area where we will take first steps together with many of our customers.

In 2024 we will continue to take steps to enable our customers to take advantage of our broad technology portfolio and help them innovate faster by solving increasing complexity in product development. Key focus areas include on-boarding emerging technologies to address specific challenges in material selection, optics design and electronics/electrification design.

Finally, we will continue our journey in bringing our concept “AI for Engineering” to our 1000+ customers to boost innovation and substantially reduce design cycles. We believe that embracing this game-changing technology is imperative for any company wanting to maintain competitive edge.

We appreciate your continued trust in EDRMedeso, as we eagerly embark on this next chapter as part of Synopsys family. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to your usual contact or myself.
