NEEDHAM, Mass. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — June 9, 2015PTC (Nasdaq: PTC) today announced that Hasbro Inc., a global company committed to Creating the World's Best Play Experiences, has chosen PTC Windchill FlexPLM as its product development solution. With PTC Windchill FlexPLM, Hasbro will be able to better streamline and centralize its product development processes and data, as well as gain greater visibility into product data during all phases of design, development and sourcing.

We found the ideal solution with PTC’s Windchill FlexPLM platform.”

“We are pleased that Hasbro chose PTC, and particularly that they selected us now with our latest version of PTC Windchill FlexPLM.
