Global industrial software company PTC Korea on Wednesday held the “PTC Innovation Exchange Korea 2026” event at the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas in Seoul and shared a physical AI technology roadmap and its AI innovation strategy. It also introduced key technologies, including new solutions, and industry-specific application cases.

With senior global executives from PTC headquarters visiting South Korea, PTC unveiled technologies and solutions for AI-driven product development innovation centred on its “Intelligent Product Lifecycle” strategy, which connects lifecycle data across product planning, production and service.

PTC in particular highlighted its recently launched cloud and AI-native product collaboration solution, PTC Jetstream.

According to the company, PTC Jetstream supports internal teams, suppliers and partners involved in product development so they can review 2D and 3D product data together and collaborate in a cloud environment.

The company said an AI-based summarisation function allows users to efficiently grasp key discussion points and follow-up actions. It added that by integrating with its product lifecycle management (PLM) solution Windchill and linking feedback and decision-making history for product review processes, Jetstream improves product development efficiency.

In a keynote speech, Robert Dahdah (로버트 다다), PTC senior vice president and chief revenue officer (CRO), presented PTC’s technology and business direction for responding to technology changes in the manufacturing industry under the theme “PTC’s roadmap in the era of physical AI.”

Joseph June (조셉 준), head of PTC’s service lifecycle management (SLM) business and head of AI strategy, introduced PTC’s AI strategy and vision. He shared directions for using AI technologies across the entire product lifecycle and for improving the efficiency of product development and service operations through new technologies.

Alex Daly (알렉스 데일리), head of national security at PTC, introduced a digital engineering-based defence modernisation strategy focused on the aerospace and defence industries. Do-gyun Kim (김도균), head of PTC Korea and a vice president at headquarters, shared business strategy for the South Korean market and future directions to support digital innovation in the domestic manufacturing industry.

Do-gyun Kim, head of PTC Korea, said, “As the pace of innovation in the manufacturing industry accelerates due to advances in AI and automation technologies, the capability to connect and utilise data across the entire process from product development to production and service is becoming more important.” He added, “PTC will support improvements in product development competitiveness and productivity for domestic manufacturers through its Intelligent Product Lifecycle strategy and AI-based innovation solutions, and will actively connect global technological innovation to domestic industrial sites.”
