Bilbao, October 28, 2025 – Virtualware (EPA: ALVIR), a pioneer in 3D-driven enterprise software, celebrates the first anniversary of its acquisition of Simumatik, marking a year of successful integration, growth, and strategic alignment that has strengthened the company’s industrial simulation and digital twin capabilities.

Since joining the Virtualware ecosystem in October 2024, Simumatik has seamlessly integrated into the company’s operations, expanding its team and accelerating product development. The Simumatik platform, now fully aligned with Virtualware’s flagship XR platform VIROO, has seen strong adoption and is on track to exceed last year’s revenue, underscoring the success of the acquisition.

“Acquiring Simumatik was a strategic move to reinforce our position in the industrial digital twin space,” said Unai Extremo, CEO of Virtualware. “One year later, we can proudly say the integration has been a success — culturally, technologically, and commercially. The Simumatik team has grown, the product has evolved, and together we are delivering more value to our customers.”

The Simumatik platform enables users to design, simulate, and test automation systems in a 3D virtual environment offering a powerful complement to VIROO’s enterprise XR capabilities. Over the past year, the two teams have worked closely to create a seamless workflow between simulation and immersive training environments, setting new standards for industrial innovation and education.

“Being part of Virtualware has allowed us to accelerate our vision and expand our impact,” said Mikel Ayani, founder of Simumatik. “With access to new resources, expertise, and markets, our technology is reaching more customers and evolving faster than ever.”

This milestone underscores Virtualware’s ability to execute disciplined M&A as part of its growth strategy, combining technological innovation with operational excellence. The success of Simumatik integration reinforces investor confidence in the company’s long-term plan and consolidates its leadership in the industrial and educational markets across Europe and North America.
