Dassault Systèmes
SIMULIA Corp. informed me by letter on August 29 that the company will be
moving to a new location at the 3DS Providence Campus in Johnston. I am
thrilled that high quality, good paying jobs, and an innovative and valuable
technology company are remaining within our borders. The company’s investment
in the new location will give them the necessary space for continued expansion,
and the opportunity to recruit local talent, as well as be good partners with
the cities, towns and businesses of Rhode Island. It was a pleasure meeting
with key leaders of Dassault Systèmes on several occasions as they determined
the best option for their future offices.
A
Statement from Scott Berkey, CEO, Dassault Systèmes SIMULIA
Governor Chafee was very supportive of our search for a location which offered enough room to accommodate our continued growth, and we appreciated his visit to our corporate headquarters in Velizy-Villacoublay, France. We are pleased to have a long history in Rhode Island and the greater Providence community, and look forward to our new home in Johnston.
