Here’s a spotlight on this year’s award winners and their remarkable achievements.
NVIDIA: Partner Growth Award Winner
NVIDIA’s commitment to our partnership over the past year has been truly inspiring. Building on the foundation established in 2023, we’ve achieved extraordinary milestones. Notably, Ansys was the first partner mentioned by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang in his keynote at GTC 2024, garnering over 32 million views, and additionally collaborated across a range of topics including accelerated computing, advancing 5G/6G communication systems, artificial intelligence (AI)-infused simulation solutions, autonomous vehicles, digital twins, and photorealistic visualization.
These collaborations are propelling us into the future of physical AI, and the results speak for themselves. For their exceptional growth and unwavering dedication, we are proud to present NVIDIA with the Partner Growth Award.
NVIDIA: Best Marketing Event Award Winner
NVIDIA GTC 2024 was nothing short of spectacular, and NVIDIA’s central role made it unforgettable. Springboarded by the NVIDIA CEO’s keynote filling the 17,000-seat SAP Center in San Jose, California, the event was a resounding success.
The Ansys Perceive EM software and NVIDIA Omniverse demo co-created by NVIDIA and Ansys was a highlight, demonstrating the power of simulation in AI-driven innovation. For their exceptional execution, NVIDIA also earned the Best Marketing Event Award, becoming our first-ever double award winner this year.
AMD: Partner Innovation Award Winner
For the second year in a row, AMD has earned the Partner Innovation Award for their groundbreaking contributions. Their support has driven improvements across Ansys products, from Ansys Fluent fluid simulation software on AMD Instinct™ MI200 and MI300 accelerators to enhanced parallel processing in Ansys Mechanical structural finite element analysis software.
AMD’s visionary support continues with efforts to port Ansys Discovery 3D product simulation software to AMD GPUs, debuting in 2025. Their dedication to advancing high-performance computing (HPC) hardware showcases true innovation, and we are proud to celebrate their achievements.
Microsoft: Go-to-market Award Winner
Last year was a breakthrough year for our partnership with Microsoft. We launched Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure cloud engineering solution, enabling customers to run simulations in their own Azure subscription (BYOC) and using their existing licenses (BYOL).
Microsoft has been a driving force in helping us navigate co-selling opportunities, providing invaluable support resources. Their commitment to innovation is evident in initiatives like bringing the AnsysGPT data plugin to the Azure Marketplace and assigning additional resources with deep digital engineering expertise and regional sales coverage for EMEA.
By going to market together, we’ve created immense value for our mutual customers. Congratulations to Microsoft for earning the Go-to-market Award.
Supermicro: Rising Star Award Winner
Supermicro achieved incredible success in 2024, making them the perfect recipient of the Rising Star Award for their remarkable contribution to Ansys' GPU initiatives during a pivotal time. When access to the latest NVIDIA-powered systems was incredibly limited, Supermicro stepped in and played a crucial role. They provided critical infrastructure that enabled Ansys and our HPC partner, MVConcept, to benchmark seven Ansys flagship products on NVIDIA-powered systems, achieving speedups of up to 1,600X.
From hiring Ansys dedicated engineers to providing access to cutting-edge NVIDIA Grace and Grace Hopper systems, Supermicro has demonstrated extraordinary commitment to our partnership and set a shining example of what it means to be a rising star.
SynMatrix: Partner Acceleration Award Winner
SynMatrix has revolutionized radio frequency (RF) filter synthesis and simulation, making them a vital technology partner. SynMatrix has embraced collaboration with Ansys to enhance our roadmap and deliver complete solutions for high-frequency electronics customers.
Their support extends beyond innovation, as they actively assist our sales teams with marketing materials, customer demos, and expert guidance across time zones. SynMatrix exemplifies what it means to be a true partner, and we’re thrilled to award them the Partner Acceleration Award.
AWS: Digital Transformation Award Winner
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a cornerstone of Ansys’s digital transformation journey, powering our next generation of cloud-native solutions. In 2024, we launched Ansys ConceptEV design and simulation platform for electric vehicle powertrains and Ansys SimAI cloud-enabled generative artificial intelligence platform, both running on AWS, with more offerings like Ansys Cloud Burst Compute coming in 2025.
SimAI software is revolutionizing simulation and engineering, and Burst software exemplifies the partnership’s synergy by seamlessly connecting desktop simulation with the immense power of AWS’s cloud infrastructure to deliver simulations exponentially faster. For their pivotal role in driving this transformation, AWS is our Digital Transformation Award recipient.
Looking Ahead
Congratulations to all our 2024 Technology Partner Award winners! Their achievements embody the power of collaboration and innovation, driving remarkable outcomes for our customers and the industry at large.
We look forward to building on these successes together in 2025 and beyond. The future of engineering simulation is brighter because of the partnerships we’ve cultivated, and we can’t wait to see what we’ll achieve together next.
