Partners with Academia in the future of CFD

As pioneers for the disruptive use of Open Source CFD in industry, ICON should be the preferred choice for CFD projects and programmes in academia. In addition, we have over 30 years’ experience and expertise across a broad range of market sectors. Most importantly though, ICON products/applications deliver more accuracy, more speed, more flexibility, greater capacity and lower costs for customers, offering a viable alternative to the big software conglomerates.

In support of academia, we provide free of charge a range of videos, copies of Publications / Presentations and Downloads.
