The company not only developed its own digital twin technology based on a 3D engine but also holds numerous original technology patents for the highly sophisticated ‘Cognitive Digital Twins’ that optimize through self-learning.

Simsysglobal has implemented digital twin-based control systems at various domestic ports, including Incheon International Airport and Incheon Port, and developed a smart building platform with Samsung C&T. As a noted leader in smart defense, smart cities, smart buildings, and smart spaces, Simsysglobal has achieved rapid growth of over 150% annually since beginning operations in 2019.

With the funds secured from this investment, SimsysGlobal plans to further enhance its core technologies and expand its business. They aim to build an extensive Simsys network with major companies and specialized institutions in various fields, leading the era of digital twin popularization in Korea and actively pursuing overseas exports.

A representative from iTrust Asset Management said, “The era of digital twin technology being utilized across various industries, public sectors, and defense has begun. Simsysglobal is a domestic digital twin company currently generating significant revenue, and we expect substantial growth in the future.”
