Ozen Engineering and SimuTech Group, two simulation ecosystem partners of Ansys, now part of Synopsys, announce their merger, which is designed to provide engineering simulation software, services, and support to clients across North America.

With over 200 employees and 80+ years of collective experience, this merger positions the new organization as a key channel partner in supporting Ansys, the companies report.

 

“This is more than just two companies coming together—it’s a deliberate and strategic step forward,” says Katie Lally, owner of SimuTech Group. “We’re building not just a bigger company, but a better one—with deeper expertise, expanded capacity, and a stronger commitment to solving our customers’ most complex engineering challenges.”

Founded in 2003, Ozen Engineering is rooted in Silicon Valley, CA. SimuTech Group, headquartered in Rochester, NY, adds a footprint across North America and experience delivering Ansys simulation software and services, across North America. Together, the companies unite geographic coverage with technical expertise, serving industries from aerospace, defense, and automotive to healthcare, energy, and consumer products.

“This is a natural joining of forces,” says Metin Ozen, founder and CEO of Ozen Engineering. “Together, we are stronger. Most importantly, this means more support, more innovation, and more opportunity for every client we serve.”

Though integration efforts are underway, the companies will maintain separate branding and operational structures through the end of 2025 to ensure continuity. Full brand unification is planned for early 2026, at which time both companies will fully operate under the SimuTech Group name.

This merger reinforces a vision for integration of simulation, analysis, and design workflows to boost R&D outcomes. SimuTech Group’s combined reach with Ozen Engineering is meant to deliver broader access and deeper expertise, the companies share

“We are perfectly positioned to support customers as their product development needs evolve—from silicon to systems and from concept to certification,” says Rick James, CEO of SimuTech Group. “This merger amplifies our ability to innovate and serve.”
