Ansys Startup Program
Launching any business comes with many obstacles to defeat. But one challenge for startup companies stands out: financing. Access to capital is of the greatest difficulties when starting out, that is why it is important to have all the smartest solutions during the development of a new product.
Engineering simulations and related software can be a great help or even groundbreaking when it comes to designing a new product, but these innovative methods usually require a solid financial background mainly typical of large companies instead of startups.
As the official distributor of Ansys, the nr.1 simulation software worldwide, eCon offers Ansys’s special STARTUP PROGRAM for companies that are:
- Privately held
- Less than 10 years old
- Have less than USD $5 million in annual revenue
- NOT engineering consulting or simulation services companies
We are committed to help today’s entrepreneurs grow into tomorrow’s industry leaders. This Startup Program is built for early-stage startups having limited funding possibilities and revenues. The program provides full access to Ansys simulation software bundles designed to help develop a new technology quickly and cost-effectively.
Eligible startups can use Ansys simulation software to build virtual prototypes of their products and components before they actually manufacture them – so they can save time, money and energy, which allows them to enter the market faster.
The Startup Program provides access to Structural&Fluids, Electromagnetics, and Embedded Software Bundles. In addition, startups also receive marketing and technical support from Ansys, so the software manufacturer will deliver solutions and advice to businesses in case of any problems, questions or requests. This follow-up system ensures that the program participants take advantage of the opportunities provided by the software.
Startups have achieved outstanding results worldwide with the help of Ansys simulation software in various fields and industries; in aerospace, automotive, healthcare, railway industries, among others; but it also provides solutions in areas such as the energy sector, the high-tech or chemical industry.
Academic
Student Engineering Simulation Software

You can connect easily to other physics analysis tools for even greater fidelity. ANSYS structural analysis software is used throughout the industry to enable engineers to optimize their product designs and reduce the costs of physical testing.
Fluids
With the industry’s deepest and broadest fluid dynamics capabilities, ANSYS helps you ensure a steady stream of product and process innovation.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a tool with amazing flexibility, accuracy and breadth of application. But serious CFD, the kind that provides insights to help you optimize your designs, could be out of reach unless you choose your software carefully. To get serious CFD results, you need serious software. ANSYS CFD goes beyond qualitative results to deliver accurate quantitative predictions of fluid interactions and trade-offs. These insights reveal unexpected opportunities for your product— opportunities that even experienced engineering analysts can otherwise miss.

Semiconductors
Simulation and modeling tools for foundry-certified and most production-proven semiconductor power integrity and reliability solutions.
Increasing demand for smart electronic devices is driving integration and further miniaturization of integrated circuit (IC) technology. Interacting physics arising from shrinking geometries, especially in FinFETs, stacked-die and emerging 3D-IC architectures, result in power integrity and reliability-related design challenges. By simulating electromigration, thermal effects and electrostatic discharge phenomena, you can verify the power noise integrity and reliability of the most complex ICs. ANSYS simulation and modeling tools offer you early power budgeting analysis for high-impact design decisions and foundry-certified accuracy needed for IC sign-off.

Optical
From Optics and Illumination Design to Photonics and Imaging
ANSYS optical simulation helps you design your optical systems faster than ever. As lasers and other optical breakthroughs are becoming ever more important and more prevalent, modeling light propagation and its impact has become crucial. ANSYS software can uniquely simulate optical performance within a system and can evaluate the final illumination effect. This unparalleled virtual product development enables you to improve your optical product performance, from lighting systems to illumination and lasers, while reducing development time and costs at the same time.
Illumination
The ANSYS illumination design flow delivers unparalleled simulation speed and accuracy for the modeling, optimization and visualization of illumination optics. With a complete illumination design software environment, you can produce uniform illumination from real light sources, and remedy the issue of nonuniform illumination sources which plague illumination design.
Imaging systems
ANSYS’ imaging design capabilities enable you to design, optimize and validate reliable imaging optics, such as cameras and sensors. The powerful lens design system and ray tracing simulation lets you visualize the impact of mechanical design variations on optical performance and create safe next-generation imaging systems.

Platform
Leverage simulation technology with a single platform that unifies legacy tools and custom workflows to help companies transform designs into products.
The ANSYS Workbench platform is the backbone for delivering a comprehensive and integrated simulation system to our customers. Using Workbench for your product development simulations will result in higher productivity from integrated applications leveraging common and compatible data models. Workbench gives you access to multiphysics and systems level insights that could not be attained before. IT organizations realize greater reliability, lower support costs and lower total cost of ownership because our platform addresses the hardware, software and data compatibility problems encountered with using many standalone applications.
Embedded Software
Embedded software is increasingly being used in smart devices, but imperfect code can be the cause of many product failures. Industry leaders estimate that every 1,000 lines of embedded software contain eight bugs. To manage this quality risk, as well as to meet higher standards for software certification, you need to leverage embedded software development tools and certified code generators.
ANSYS provides a model-based embedded software development and simulation environment with a built-in automatic code generator to accelerate embedded software development projects. System and software engineers use ANSYS SCADE solutions to graphically design, verify and automatically generate critical systems and software applications with high dependability requirements. SCADE solutions are highly interoperable and can be easily integrated, allowing for development optimization and increased communication among team members.

Multiphysics
Deep, proven solver technology from ANSYS is a given. Applying this solver technology to multiphysics simulation is the next step for many engineers. See below for the range of ANSYS multiphysics offering available to meet your needs.
We live in a world where multiple physical forces are at play, and the products we produce are often subject to many of these physical forces simultaneously. Fluid forces, thermal effects, structural integrity and electromagnetic radiation can all impact performance of products and industrial processes. If you try to isolate the multiple forces in play, you may not get an accurate prediction of behavior. ANSYS multiphysics solutions can help engineers examine these effects in combination and isolation, achieving the highest fidelity solution when it’s needed.
Systems
By developing virtual product prototypes you can couple the physical attributes of a product with the systems and embedded software.
As product complexity grows, so does the challenge of integrating the individual components in a system to ensure they work together as expected. Systems modeling and simulation helps you create a complete virtual prototype to understand and optimize the critical interactions between physics, controls and the environment throughout the product development process. Then by combining system modeling with sensors and big data, you can develop a digital twin of your product to manage its performance and maintenance after it has been deployed.
