FLUG Week 2021

About FLUG Week 2021

We are pleased to invite you to join industry experts for a week of online seminars and insights about FLACS-CFD at the FLUG Week 2021.

Chris Coffey, our Global FLACS Product Manager, and his team is leading FLUG Week from September 27th-October 1st 2021 to talk about the latest software update and exciting plans for the future.

The FLACS User Group (FLUG) is a high profile discussion forum for engineers, safety experts and industry scholars.

FLUG meets to discuss new software developments and safety-related topics. Its work has played an integral role in the development of Gexcon’s industry leading software, which represents more than 40 years of extensive and unrivalled modelling and validation work.

Members of FLUG will also deliver presentations during the week to share their experiences and knowledge.
