The way we design and engineer complex systems are quickly changing as AI becomes integrated into new workflows and methods. How will AI reshape the way we model complex systems? What kinds of advances and discoveries might come about as simulation and intelligence converge? And how will these shifts influence domains such as automotive, aerospace, robotics, semiconductors, and material science?

Join us for an invite-only, half-day summit hosted by OUP VC and Synopsys Technology Intelligence Center, where we’ll explore with the changemakers in the space how AI is transforming the way we run and apply physics simulations.

This gathering brings together founders, investors, reearchers, and industry leaders for candid discussions on what’s working, what’s shifting, and what’s next.
