Capgemini is proud to be a Premium Plus sponsor at Siemens Realize LIVE Americas 2026, the flagship event for the global Siemens digital industries ecosystem. Join us in Detroit as we showcase how we help engineering‑driven organizations design, build, and run more intelligent, connected, and sustainable products at scale.

Why meet Capgemini at Realize LIVE?

At Realize LIVE, Capgemini will demonstrate how organizations can unlock measurable value across the product lifecycle by combining deep industry expertise, Siemens technologies, and advanced digital capabilities from PLM and low‑code to AI and data.

Whether you are modernizing engineering processes, scaling digital manufacturing, or accelerating product innovation, our teams will be on site to share real-world use cases, proven architectures, and tangible ROI stories.

Experience Capgemini live

Visit our booth

Meet Capgemini experts at our dedicated booth to explore:

  • Intelligent manufacturing and digital continuity
  • PLM‑centric transformation journeys

Through live demos and interactive discussions, you’ll see how Capgemini helps organizations move faster from strategy to execution.

Attend our sessions

Capgemini will contribute thought leadership across breakout sessions and a sponsored Transformation Stage session, sharing practical insights and customer‑led perspectives.

Did your Finance or Engineering leadership ever ask you “What’s the expected ROI on this PLM/AI investment?”, “How does this connect to efficiency KPIs tracked in Engineering?”, “How do you know your PLM/AI investment portfolio is giving us the best ROI for the money?”. We will describe a data-driven approach to addressing these questions and more. Methodology and case study will be described, and a best-practices conversation will be initiated. This is a joint presentation by Caterpillar and Capgemini.
