Editing Dassault Systèmes (section)

=== 2012–2019 ===
As the 2000s progressed, Dassault Systèmes began to enter online applications and build toward more online applications for product data management, collaboration, realistic simulation and more. Examples of this strategy include the purchase or launch of brands such as EXALEAD for information intelligence, NETVIBES for business analytics, 3DEXCITE for marketing, and GEOVIA for modeling the planet. In 2012, the company launched the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to connect its software applications.  

CATIA under the 3DEXPERIENCE platform enables users to go beyond physical product definition to model any product in the context of its real-life behavior. Systems, architects, engineers, designers and all contributors collaborate on fit, form, function, and customer experience.<ref name="Adaptive Corporation">{{cite web |title=CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE Software for Product Design |url=https://www.adaptivecorp.com/products/dassault-systemes/catia/ |access-date=July 31, 2022 |website=adaptivecorp.com}}</ref> 

Dassault Systèmes also began to offer its version of [[digital twin]]s, which the company calls virtual twin experiences and are powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Virtual twins help companies visualize, model and simulate an entire environment to explore how a product or process will behave when assembled, operated or subjected to a range of events. 

To expand their capabilities and industries served through the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, Dassault Systèmes completed additional acquisitions, including:
