ESI Group has also stepped up its involvement in major tech events such as CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas, Salon du Bourget in Paris and the Simulation and High-Performance Computing Forum at Teratec (Exascale computing), the international meeting for Simulation, Big Data and Machine Learning. We have been able to use these key industry events to pave the way for new partnerships using the PPL approach and to successfully showcase the innovative solutions developed by the Group.
Acceleration of sales transformation phase
In order to bring
its sales force into line with the demands of the PPL approach and those
businesses wishing to transition to the technologies of the Factory and
Industry of the Future, in 2017 ESI initiated a major overhaul of its
sales force, especially in the US. This transformation will have a
short-term influence on sales performance and aims to bring the sales
force into line with the operational support needs of industrial clients
through a regional coordination structure based around customer account
managers who engage in value selling, and sales engineers in support of
strong technological and methodological changes.
The Group has also set up latest generation demo centers to showcase ESI’s Immersive Virtual Engineering (IVE) solution (IC.IDO) and it has strengthened its support and marketing teams and learning centers. These are internationally available to all users of the Group’s solutions. For example, the new Silicon Valley (San José, CA) office hosts a development team specialized in new technologies such as Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT) and the Cloud, together with a local and regional marketing, sales and support team.
