In a keynote talk at the COMSOL Conference 2025 Boston, Kyle C. Koppenhoefer of AltaSim Technologies explores his company's approach to simulation-driven projects.

In this presentation, Koppenhoefer shares how he fosters a culture of creativity at the company, valuing social interaction and personal mindset — two often overlooked cornerstones to creating knowledge. The talk also includes an explanation of why simulation-driven projects require more than technical expertise alone, but must be combined with organizational support, interdisciplinary collaboration, clear problem definition, and strategic communication.

Kyle C. Koppenhoefer is the president of AltaSim Technologies, a position he's held since he cofounded the company in 2002. He holds a PhD in engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign.
