CAESES User Conference 2022
FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS would be more than happy to welcome you at our CAESES User Conference from September 21 to 22, 2022 in Berlin, Germany! The COVID-19 pandemic has considerably restricted global travel and events over several months. Finally, national and international restrictions have been eased and it is exciting to once again be able to host face-to-face conferences to meet, educate further and effectively network – something that has been long missed.
Meet CAESES® users from all over the world, from various industries such as marine, turbomachinery, automotive and the aerospace sector.
WHEN: Sep 21-22, 2022

Event Venue
Pentahotel in Berlin Köpenick is full of contradictions, in the best kind of way. The modern 190-room complex overlooks the River Dahme and its surroundings which are steeped in medieval history. Submerge yourself in the old town of Köpenick with its town hall in the brick Gothic style of the Mark Brandenburg and the famous story of its captain. Walk along the river and visit the castle island. Berlin-Köpenick is sure to surprise you! And best of all, the transfer from Berlin’s BER airport to the Pentahotel only takes about 30 minutes.
Room Reservation
For the participants of the CAESES User Conference there is a contingent of rooms available in the Pentahotel. The standard single room costs 179 Euro per night, breakfast and use of the gym area are included. A larger room “Penta Plus” with a living and working area is available for 199 Euro per night.
You can book your room by phone ( +49 69 256 699 300 ) or by email ( reservations.koepenick@pentahotels.com ).

The room contingent is available until August 5, 2022.
September is traditionally a popular month for trade shows and events in Berlin. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you reserve a hotel room early.
Workshops
On the first conference day (Wed, Sep 21), we will offer CAESES® beginner and advanced workshops with hands-on exercises. The workshops will run in parallel sessions on Wednesday morning. A detailed description of the topics covered will be available soon.
Beginner Workshop: CAESES Introduction and Overview
This workshop is intended to give a jump start for anyone who has not used CAESES® so far, or who has just started working with it. We will give an overview of the software’s capabilities including hands-on exercises and best practices for beginners.
Bring your colleagues who haven’t been in touch with CAESES®!
Advanced Workshop: CAESES Advanced Use and Best Practices
With this being a workshop for active CAESES® users, we will dig deeper into some geometry modeling and feature scripting issues. As an essential part of this interactive session, we want to discuss tasks and challenges that our users are facing.
Preliminary Agenda
There will be speakers and CAESES users from all over the world, talking about how to create the most competitive products on the market. You can expect exclusive and fascinating insights into the simulation-driven design of automotive engine combustion systems, ship hulls and yachts, pumps, and wind turbines.
