India is an important market for Dassault Systemes but more so for its CEO Bernard Charles. While the Frenchman grew up in Brittany (France), his uncle, the late Salesian priest Francis Guezou, who founded the Don Bosco College at Yelagiri Hills, Tamil Nadu, would visit every few years and regale him with stories about India. Now, Charles feels India will be transformational in the company's journey from ‘things’ to ‘life’. There has been a shift in the company’s strategy to high-value research in life sciences, to advance the discovery of new medicines and to improve healing. In a conversation with BusinessLine, Charles spoke about what this transformation means for the French industrial design firm. Excerpts:
What is Dassault Systemes’ strategy in moving from things to life?
This is part of our roadmap for the next 20 years. For the last 35 years, we’ve created solutions to design things and to handle the engineering of sophisticated products such as airplanes and submarines. This is what I call ‘things’.
