ShipConstructor and ShipbuildingPLM sessions for shipyard engineers
About this event
The SSI World Shipbuilding Conference 2026 (Americas) is organised by SSI, maker of the ShipConstructor design and production system and the ShipbuildingPLM platform. Held at the IP Casino Resort Spa in Biloxi, Mississippi over three days, the programme runs 77 sessions across Workshops, Innovation and Applied tracks, opening with a keynote from SSI chief executive Denis Morais and an address from Julie Miller, representing the office of US Congressman Mike Ezell. It is aimed at naval architects, production engineers and PLM leads at shipyards and design offices.
Who it's for
This vendor-led user conference splits into an Innovation Track (software partner and product-roadmap content) and an Applied Track (hands-on PLM/CAD workflow sessions), plus hardware workshops. Client keynotes come from major shipyards and government maritime programs, pointing to an audience of shipyard engineering and PLM/CAD implementation staff, naval and government program stakeholders, and SSI's software partner ecosystem.
