The event will be held on April 10, 2025, in Frankfurt, Germany. CIMdata's PLM Market & Industry Forums have evolved to address the changing challenges and opportunities in the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) sector. Each annual event focuses on a central theme reflecting the latest industry trends. The main theme for 2025 is “Model-Based Systems Engineering: Optimizing Systems of Systems,” a critical topic in today's world of smart-connected products. The event will frame the topic of MBSE and explore how industries are adapting to the rising adoption of MBSE across various sectors, not just aerospace defense, and automotive. CIMdata will consider the following questions: How is the global PLM Economy responding to these requirements? How well are their industrial clients achieving their MBSE objectives? To help answer both questions, CIMdata will leverage primary research conducted in late 2024 and early 2025. CIMdata will also share its perspective on the current state of the PLM market and future
