SimWorx was born as a LabMeC spinoff. LabMeC is the Computational Mechanics Laboratory in the Civil Engineering Institute at State University of Campinas (UNICAMP).
LabMeC’s mission is strongly aligned with technology transference, acting as a driver for that purpose in the Industry to Academia relationship.
