Boeing Invests $1 Billion in Dassault Systèmes 3DExperience to Accelerate Global Additive Manufacturing

Boeing has announced a $1 billion partnership with France’s Dassault Systèmes. The deal will bring Dassault’s 3DExperience software into Boeing’s additive‑manufacturing (AM) operations worldwide, enabling the design and production of 3‑D‑printed aerospace components across all sites.

The 3DExperience platform offers a suite of collaborative tools that allow teams in different locations to co‑design, validate, and share best practices in AM. This capability will support Boeing’s goal of delivering innovative printed parts for aircraft, satellites, and other aerospace applications.

Boeing has long been a leader in AM, applying the technology to satellite structures and airplane parts, often in partnership with Norsk Titanium. The company also funds cutting‑edge research through its support of the University of Sheffield’s Additive Manufacturing Research Centre.

Our Founder & CEO has emphasized that successful AM programs hinge on strong partnerships with software providers. The new 30‑year agreement builds on a solid history of collaboration between Boeing and Dassault Systèmes, promising to further elevate industry standards and performance.

We anticipate this partnership will deliver significant benefits for Boeing and the wider aerospace sector, setting a new benchmark for best practice in additive manufacturing.
