Delhi, India\u00a0<\/strong>\u2014\u00a0February\u00a0 22, 2018<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Dassault Syst\u00e8mes, the 3DEXPERIENCE Company, has announced today that it is extending its \u201cLa Fondation Dassault Syst\u00e8mes<\/a>\u201d, global initiative to transform education and research in India. This is the third geography after Europe and US where Dassault Syst\u00e8mes is introducing La Fondation and it enhances the commitment of Dassault Syst\u00e8mes for India.<\/p>\n

\n

La Fondation Dassault Syst\u00e8mes, is dedicated to transforming the future of education and research with the learning and discovery capabilities of 3D technology and virtual universes. La Fondation Dassault Syst\u00e8mes started its operation in Europe in 2015, in the United States of America in 2017 and now expands its scope to India.\u00a0Launch of La Fondation in India as\u00a0Dassault Syst\u00e8mes Foundation\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>extends the scope of the foundation\u2019s social contribution to India, enabling creation of new learning experiences and encouraging greater interest in science, mathematics, engineering and technology disciplines among students.<\/p>\n

\n

The Dassault Syst\u00e8mes 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.\u00a0 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.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIn 2015, United Nations adopted a set of 17 goals to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all as part of a new sustainable development agenda\u201d said\u00a0Thibault de Tersant, President, La Fondation Dassault Syst\u00e8mes<\/strong>. \u201cIt is in this context that Dassault Syst\u00e8mes decided to create its foundation, with a strong focus on education to enable everyone to have the level of skills that will both meet the new needs of the industry and provide motivating work. Today, it seems obvious and relevant to extend our action to India, because of its large percentage of young population, out of which 1.5 million engineers graduate every year. La Fondation Dassault Syst\u00e8mes in India will support projects to enhance their skills, the applicability of their knowledge to the future of the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sudarshan Mogasale, CEO of Dassault Syst\u00e8mes R&D centre (3DPLM) in India and Chairman of La Fondation in India<\/strong>, commented \u201cDassault Syst\u00e8mes 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 Syst\u00e8mes in India, we will take our contribution to education transformation to next level and reiterate our commitment for developing the \u2018Workforce of the Future\u2019.\u00a0Dassault Syst\u00e8mes Foundation India,\u00a0will launch its full-fledged operations in the next quarter and will call for non-commercial projects in education and research domains\u201d.<\/p>\n

La Fondation Dassault Syst\u00e8mes in India also announced two projects they are supporting to initiate its operations in India:<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The formation of \u2018Innovation Hub\u2019 at Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan\u2019s Muktangan Exploratory Science Centre in Pune. The Innovation Hub will provide a platform for school students to foster innovation and creativity, problem solving approach and project based learning.<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The design and development of \u2018Solar Powered Passenger Vehicle and Charging station\u2019, a project undertaken by Pimpri Chinchwad Education Trust\u2019s Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering in Pune. This is a research project for Green Energy imitative and exposing engineering students on the mobility of future.<\/p>\n
