OCTAVE Live OnTour Global Flagship Event Debuts in China, Industrial-Grade AI and Full Lifecycle Digital Solutions Let Engineering Intelligence Cross Boundaries

September 22-23, 2026, Shanghai, China——OCTAVE (Yingtu Software), carrying decades of Intergraph's industrial technology heritage, held its global flagship event "OCTAVE Live OnTour - Shanghai" in Shanghai. This marks the first time OCTAVE (Yingtu Software) has brought its global flagship user conference to China after completing its dual listing on Nasdaq Stockholm and Nasdaq, signaling that this industrial software giant is deepening its commitment to the Greater China market with a renewed posture.

With the theme "Intelligence Ignites the Future, Infinite Possibilities," the conference's core proposition directly addressed the large-scale deployment of industrial-grade AI——when artificial intelligence truly enters heavy-asset industries, whoever can transform decades of accumulated engineering wisdom into computable, transferable, and decision-ready assets will hold the key to the next industrial revolution.

From "Recording the World" to "Understanding the World": A Cognitive Leap in Industrial Intelligence

In his keynote speech, Mr. Mattias Stenberg, Chief Executive Officer of OCTAVE (Yingtu Software), presented a sharp judgment: all critical infrastructure operating enterprises have accumulated vast amounts of engineering wisdom——the true condition of assets after twenty years of service, the components that fail first, the hazards discovered during inspections but never recorded in drawings——yet this information almost never reaches the next decision-making step. Wisdom born in the design phase cannot flow to construction, and data collected during operations and maintenance struggles to flow back to the engineering design side. For decades, technology could not cross these boundaries. The arrival of AI is changing all of this. Stenberg explained: when engineering wisdom runs on a connected platform, enterprises gain the scarcest capability in the AI era——allowing data to be understood at its place of origin and to continuously appreciate in value as it flows.

Mr. Jay Allardyce, Chief Product Officer of OCTAVE (Yingtu Software), then demonstrated the productization path of this judgment: an integrated platform that breaks down data barriers across engineering design, construction, operations and maintenance, and safety, allowing intelligence generated by any discipline to reach all business processes. From design decisions to construction execution, from operations data flowing back to engineering design, to ultimately reaching the society and livelihoods that depend on project outcomes——the value of industrial AI lies not in the concept itself, but in deterministically empowering every design, construction, operation, and protection in the physical world.

High-Tech and AI Empowerment: A Systematic Introduction for the Greater China Market

This event was a deep collision between OCTAVE (Yingtu Software)'s global technology vision and China's local practices. The conference featured four sub-forums covering design, construction, operations and maintenance, and new infrastructure, spanning core areas such as 3D modeling, intelligent P&ID, engineering information management, construction management, supply chain resilience, predictive maintenance, geospatial intelligence, and physical security. OCTAVE (Yingtu Software)'s global product leaders respectively released the vision and roadmaps for four major product lines——design, construction, operations and maintenance, and security——and officially launched Octave Platform——a platform-level product that embeds intelligent agent capabilities and a connected data layer into the full lifecycle of assets.

Notably, the conference showcased a series of cutting-edge industrial AI practices being deployed in China: AI-driven material coding and BOM processes, an IWP throughput optimizer under material constraints, a construction-to-operations handover agent, AI-based automatic reconstruction of intelligent objects from legacy P&ID, a high-fidelity spatiotemporal intelligent digital twin platform, and more. These technologies are not limited to the demonstration stage, but have already formed verifiable, traceable industrial knowledge in key industries such as energy, chemicals, nuclear power, shipbuilding, airports, and automotive manufacturing.

Rooted in Greater China, Eyes on the World: Domestic Adaptation and Local Deep Cultivation

Mr. Jia Zhijun, Senior Vice President of OCTAVE (Yingtu Software) and President of Greater China, stated that Greater China is the core engine for OCTAVE (Yingtu Software)'s localized innovation and business growth. Leveraging its deep roots in China's critical infrastructure industries, OCTAVE (Yingtu Software) will continue to deepen domestic adaptation, empower the digital and intelligent upgrading of core industries such as energy, transportation, and high-end manufacturing, and deliver full lifecycle, intelligent, and highly reliable digital value.

The conference also held the Octave Ovations Innovator Alliance Competition Awards Ceremony, the Octave Elite Greater China Paper Competition Awards Ceremony, and the Octave Honorable Customers Awards Ceremony.
