NAFEMS World Congress 2027
Independent engineering simulation congress
About this event
The 21st NAFEMS World Congress, the largest independent international conference devoted to engineering simulation. Four days of industry-led presentations cut across disciplines and software vendors rather than centring on one platform, with short training included in registration. The 2025 Salzburg edition drew 644 delegates from 374 organisations across 39 countries.
Who it's for
A flagship, high-cost, multi-day technical congress for practitioners and researchers in engineering simulation, including FEA, CFD, and multiphysics, across sectors like aerospace, automotive, energy, and life sciences, plus simulation software vendors. Not suited to casual or individual practitioners, non-simulation AEC/CAD users, or attendees seeking a free or virtual-only format, since this is in-person over four days.
