La Fondation Dassault Systèmes comes to India
Dassault Systèmes has announced that it is extending its “La Fondation Dassault Systèmes”, a global initiative to transform education and research in India. This is the third geography after Europe and US where Dassault Systèmes is introducing La Fondation and it enhances the commitment of Dassault Systèmes for India.
The Dassault Systèmes Foundation will provide grants, digital content and skillsets in virtual technologies to qualified non-commercial, non-profit projects proposed by schools, universities, engineering/science colleges, researchers, museums and other foundations located in India. This will foster greater knowledge in the 3D content, technology and simulation applications that have long been used by industry for the design, engineering and manufacturing of most of the products society relies on today. These technologies can be leveraged to create new education content where the experience in virtual universes greatly improves the learning of science and research, and skill development.
Sudarshan Mogasale, CEO, Dassault Systèmes R&D Centre (3DPLM) in India and Chairman of La Fondation in India, commented, “Dassault Systèmes in India has been running many Academia Programs with the objective of transforming engineering education. Our software applications are standard in engineering colleges. With the formation of La Fondation Dassault Systèmes in India, we will take our contribution to education transformation to next level and reiterate our commitment for developing the ‘Workforce of the Future’. Dassault Systèmes Foundation India will launch its full-fledged operations in the next quarter and will call for noncommercial projects in the education and research domains.”
La Fondation Dassault Systèmes in India also announced two projects they are supporting to initiate its operations in India –
· The formation of “Innovation Hub” at Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s Muktangan Exploratory Science Centre in Pune.
· The design and development of “Solar Powered Passenger Vehicle and Charging station”, a project undertaken by Pimpri Chinchwad Education Trust’s Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering in Pune.
