Other key industry trends
In terms of revenue, Latin America region accounted for 5.0% of the global computer aided engineering market in 2025.
Globally, North America is projected to lead the regional market in terms of revenue in 2033.
Asia Pacific is the fastest growing regional market and is projected to reach USD 9,975.5 million by 2033.
The growing acceptance of computer-aided manufacturing and process simulation is driving the regional market growth. Moreover, the growing usage of simulation in medical education is driving the market growth. For instance, more than 450 medical educational centers in different universities across the region, such as Universidade de Sao Paulo, are using simulation techniques to educate students.
Most of these centers are in Brazil and Chile. As per the report published by the World Bank, the major economies in South America, such as Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, and Chile, are spending almost 3% to 4% of their GDP on road infrastructure development, which is helping in increasing the per capita income of people, subsequently driving people to spend money on buying cars.
These factors are encouraging automobile manufacturers to increase the production rate using simulation tools. For instance, the Pontifical Catholic University (PUC) of Minas Gerais and FCA collaborated to create the region's first Vehicular Dynamic Simulation Centre (SIMCentre) to help adopt new techniques in vehicle testing.
