Paris, France

OpenFOAM (open source CFD software) remains a core element and a strategic pillar of ESI's Business Unit, strengthening its multi-physics simulation capabilities to support Virtual Product, Process and Workflow concurrent engineering. In line with this commitment, ESI maintains a robust OpenFOAM Governance and operational structure that ensures both stability and continued innovation for OpenFOAM and its strong community. Andrew Heather, Senior Manager, leads this business and reports to Emmanuel Leroy, EVP, Chief Product and Technology Officer at ESI Group.

The recent integration of OpenCFD Limited into the ESI UK legal entity will not disrupt day-to-day business activities. Both OpenCFD and OpenFOAM Trademarks will remain vital components of Keysight Technologies brand.

This new context will leverage OpenCFD’s decades of innovative excellence in computational fluid dynamics and Keysight’s expertise in open-source engines like OpenTAP, reinforcing a shared vision in multi-physics simulation technologies.
