Manufacturing is evolving at an incredible pace, and Hexagon is leading the way with cutting-edge innovations. At IMTEX 2025, the company showcased its advanced software platform that enables manufacturers to design and optimise products in the digital world before bringing them to life. By simulating and testing various scenarios digitally, manufacturers can significantly reduce the number of physical prototypes, ensuring a more efficient and cost-effective production process.

Hexagon's focus extends beyond efficiency—it is also deeply committed to sustainability. The company's solutions help manufacturers reduce waste, lower carbon footprints, and ensure ESG compliance across the entire manufacturing cycle. By minimising the need for physical prototypes, Hexagon is directly contributing to more sustainable production methods. Previously, automotive manufacturers would require over 100 prototypes for a single platform, but with Hexagon's technology, this number has dropped to around 15–20, drastically cutting material wastage and energy consumption.

The company is also seeing strong growth in the Indian market, driven by the Make in India initiative. Sridhar Dharmarajan highlighted that Hexagon witnessed a 35% growth in India last year and expects a similar trajectory this year. As India becomes a major hub for both manufacturing and design, global automotive and aerospace players are increasingly using Hexagon's platform for their projects. Notably, major Indian automotive manufacturers are now designing and producing platforms for the European market using Hexagon's technology.

With significant opportunities emerging in sectors such as automotive, aerospace, defence, and electronics, Hexagon is poised for continued expansion in India. The company's integrated approach—spanning design, manufacturing, and quality—ensures that Indian manufacturers not only meet global standards but also position India as a key player in the global manufacturing ecosystem.
