It's already mid-year and what a quarter it has been. ⚡
From Tokyo to Milan to Shanghai, we brought the Spatial community together across three continents. New customer stories went live, our engineers kept shipping technical content, and our customers continued to bring powerful applications to life with our SDKs.
Here is everything that happened at Spatial in Q2 2026 👇
Following Stuttgart, the Insider Express series made its way to Milan, Tokyo, and Shanghai, bringing customers and partners together for a full day of strategic insights, technical deep dives, and direct access to our experts.
From product roadmap updates on 3D InterOp, 3D ACIS Modeler and CGM Modeler, to live AGM demos and the latest meshing innovations, each stop offered hands-on sessions and great conversations with our community.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us!
