Dassault Systèmes at IZB 2026 in Wolfsburg
October 27-29, 2026 | Hall 6, Booth 6307
At the International Suppliers Fair (IZB), Europe’s leading trade fair for the automotive supply industry, decision-makers and engineers from OEMs and suppliers meet right at the Volkswagen Group’s headquarters. The themes: speed, quality, and partnership.
OEMs are cutting their development times by 30% or more. For automotive suppliers, this means delivering the same results in significantly less time, with growing complexity and a greater number of variants. Speed alone doesn’t solve this. Development time is rarely lost within individual tasks. It is lost at the interfaces between disciplines, between engineering and manufacturing, and between supplier and OEM.
From Requirement to Series Production: Speed Across the Automotive Supplier Network
At IZB, we will show how you can increase speed, collaborate with partners in a shared ecosystem, and make complexity more manageable. Visit us at our booth and find out how a continuous digital thread helps you reach your goals faster together with your OEM.

A Digital Thread: From Virtual Twin to Finished System.
Our Topics at the Booth:
Whether powertrain, chassis, interior, or new lighting technology, new vehicle systems are becoming more complex and more tightly interconnected, while vehicle manufacturers are simultaneously raising the pace. With a continuous digital thread, early validation, and a shared data foundation, both internally and with OEMs, suppliers don’t just keep up. They position themselves as the preferred development partner.
Supplier Excellence: Innovating Together in an Industrial Ecosystem
- Accelerate development: Requirements instead of silos. Design, systems engineering, simulation, and software on a single platform shorten cycles and make changes traceable.
- Scale manufacturing: Plan, validate, and optimize production and plants as a Virtual Twin. This makes variants manageable and allows proven solutions to be rolled out across sites.
- Collaborate seamlessly with OEMs: Share data and change statuses from requirement to series production, for faster alignment and a clear position as a systems and software partner.
Industry World Models: AI in Enterprise Governance and Engineering
Industrial AI with Virtual Twins and AI agents for more efficient development processes, well-founded decisions, and accelerated innovation.
Discover Dassault Systèmes' Virtual Companions and their capabilities in governance and engineering.
- AURA: Enterprise Knowledge & technical Excellence
- LEO: the Engineer for Design & Engineering
Developing Software-Defined Vehicles with AI-Powered Virtual Twins
Software-defined vehicles increase complexity across mechanics, electronics, and software. We show how digital continuity can be achieved from the initial user experience concept all the way to the finished vehicle function.
3DEXPERIENCE at Volkswagen
The Volkswagen Group relies on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform from Dassault Systèmes as its foundational engineering and manufacturing platform. The goals are digital continuity, global collaboration, and a future-ready engineering landscape.
