Computer Simulation Technology (CST) was founded in 1992 by a group of visionary engineers, including Dr. Bernhard Wagner and Dr. Martin Timm. Their mission was to develop cutting-edge simulation software that could accurately model electromagnetic fields, a critical component in designing electronic devices.
The company quickly established itself as a leader in the field, thanks to its flagship product, CST Studio Suite. This software became a staple for engineers and designers working on everything from antennas to complex electronic circuits. CST's commitment to innovation and precision helped it build a strong reputation in the industry.
A significant milestone in CST's journey came in 2016 when it was acquired by Dassault Systèmes, a global leader in 3D design software. This acquisition allowed CST to integrate its simulation tools with Dassault's broader suite of design and engineering software, expanding its reach and capabilities.
Today, CST continues to be at the forefront of simulation technology, helping engineers and designers push the boundaries of what's possible in electronics and beyond. The company's journey from a small startup to a key player in the global technology landscape is a testament to its founders' vision and the power of innovative software solutions.
