By

Michelle Ash, CEO GEOVIA

 

Dear GEOVIA Community,

In light of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic, I am pleased to announce that all of us in GEOVIA and Dassault Systèmes continue to work to help our customers and users during this time of uncertainty and social distancing, ensuring everybody is safe and productive.

We have solutions available to support our current GEOVIA desktop users as well as universities so that they continue to be productive while we all adjust to the new reality of working from home or away from the office. Your local GEOVIA representative can provide more information about these options and more.

Our team of mining experts is also available to respond to your inquiries and requests from their home offices around the globe and in a time zone near you. That includes our Technical Support team, who continues to monitor and answer tickets created on the GEOVIA Support Site as well as emails sent to GEOVIA.Support@3ds.com.

In times of social distancing and self-isolation, we are also enhancing the opportunities to connect by launching the Innovation Webinar Series, where you can continue learning and getting insights from industry and mining experts – either live or on-demand. The series starts on April 16th at 8 AM CET, when I will be discussing with other Dassault Systèmes executives about the operating models and resilience of mining companies in the face of adversity and global crisis like in the COVID-19. Learn more about this live event and register here.

I invite you to stay informed and to engage with our experts on the GEOVIA social media channels (Blog, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube), on the GEOVIA Discussion Board, or email us at GEOVIA.Info@3ds.com; and to improve your skills with our on-demand e-Seminars. You might also like to learn what Dassault Systèmes is doing to face COVID-19 challenges.

GEOVIA and Dassault Systèmes employees are used to working from anywhere, on any device, thanks to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, which enables collaboration and provides secure remote work capabilities on project and program data. Learn how these solutions help mining companies here.

On behalf of all of us at GEOVIA, I reiterate our commitment to continue supporting and helping our customers and users to stay productive during this challenging time.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
