Based in Munich, Germany -- home of Oktoberfest -- this company is poised to be a long-term, major player in the global AEC/O market.

Nemetschek AG likely is best known in U.S. AEC/O circles as its subsidiary, Nemetschek North America, the former Diehl Graphsoft, maker of the VectorWorks series of CAD and building information modeling (BIM) products. However, the Nemetschek Group, as the parent company also is known, ranks among the global leaders in software for all roles and phases of the AEC/O building project lifecycle.
