Hello,
We are glad to organize the 2026 CATIA Construction R&D Workshop.
Considering the other event 'AEC Global Summit' planned wk24 (June 8th to 12th) in DS HQ at Vélizy, we have decided to merge the events to avoid redundancies, agenda conflicts and over travels.
Thus, the workshop will be held in Dassault Systèmes HQ at Vélizy from June 8th to 12th. Content remains the same but is adapted to a shorter timeframe. You will be able to participate to more events, conferences and enjoy 3DS Campus.
The registration web site will soon open and will be displayed here. Stay tuned.
(for people already registered to Aix workshop, please register again.)
The workshop aims at discovering, practicing and giving feedbacks on enhancements under development mainly planned in R2026xFD and R2027x. The AEC Global Summit also hosts various roundtables and conferences.
This is not a webinar but a face-to-face workshop on premise with a limited number of seats. Please don't register if you don't intend to come physically.
The workshop is this year fully focused on Building sessions showcasing a complete workflow 'from Design Data to Construction Execution'.
There is no Civil Engineering workshop but if needed we can organize a short dedicated session. Please let us know when registering.

We are looking forward to seeing this year !
