Solidworks Corporation Opens New Office in Brazil to Serve Fast-Growing Market for 3D Mechanical Design Software
SolidWorks Corporation today opened a new office in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
The office will help coordinate activities of authorized SolidWorks resellers serving more than 1,000 companies in the country and selling SolidWorks® 3D mechanical design software, COSMOST design analysis software, and related solutions to help customers move better products more quickly to market.
"This new office enables SolidWorks to get closer to our customers, who are growing in number every day, and will help us bring their businesses to the next level," said Jeff Ray, SolidWorks' chief operating officer. "The office also brings us closer to our authorized resellers by providing them with first-hand information, training, and support that will help them succeed. We believe in the Brazilian market and its savvy manufacturing industry, which is clearly discerning the advantages of SolidWorks over competing mechanical design software."
