SimuTech Group, provider of Ansys simulation software—now part of the Synopsys portfolio—alongside comprehensive consulting and training services, has been named 2025 Worldwide Channel Partner of the Year at Synopsys' Simulation and Analysis (S&A) Global Sales Conference.

This award represents the highest recognition within the global channel partner ecosystem, honoring performance, growth, and strategic partnership across software and services, according to Synopsys.

The recognition caps a landmark year for SimuTech Group, marked by successful integration following the SimuTech–Ozen Engineering merger, and continued leadership in delivering simulation‑driven innovation, according to SimuTech.

"Being named Worldwide Channel Partner of the Year is an extraordinary honor. It's a testament to the strength and success of our team as well as our partnership with Synopsys," says Katie Lally, CEO and owner of SimuTech Group. "In a year defined by industry change and transformation, our teams remained focused, resilient, and customer‑driven—delivering historic results across both software and services."

In addition to being named Worldwide Channel Partner of the Year, SimuTech Group received multiple regional and global honors in 2025 — including awards for Americas Channel Partner of the Year, marketing leadership, new customer acquisition (driven in large part by the legacy Ozen Engineering team), and sales excellence across regional and worldwide categories, the company reports.

Together, these recognitions reflect SimuTech Group's ability to deliver end-to-end value—from enterprise software deployment and advanced simulation consulting to training, enablement, and long-term customer success.

SimuTech Group's 2025 recognition highlights the company's role in enabling large‑scale, high‑impact engineering programs through collaboration with customers and technology partners. At the global sales conference, SimuTech leadership co‑presented alongside Synopsys executives on strategic partnership initiatives, showcasing customer engagements that represent complex simulation programs in the global channel ecosystem.

"SimuTech Group's recognition as Worldwide Channel Partner of the Year reflects what happens when innovation meets execution," says Ravi Kumar, vice president of Global Channel Sales at Synopsys. "Their record‑breaking results across software sales and customer success, delivered with focus and resilience, set a high standard for channel excellence."

"We are incredibly grateful for our partnership with Synopsys," adds Lally. "Their collaboration, trust, and shared commitment to customer success continue to be foundational to everything we do."

SimuTech Group enters 2026 focused on expanding its global reach, advancing digital engineering capabilities, and helping customers solve complex engineering challenges through simulation-driven innovation, the company reports.

"We are also energized by the evolving industry landscape and the opportunities ahead—including our growing relationship with Synopsys—as we expand our ability to support customers across the electronic design automation (EDA) domain, alongside Ansys simulation and analysis software," says Lally.
