Recently our colleagues Tanush Wadhawan and Daniel Bencsik held a training session about Modeling in Practice - fundamentals and design applications for a group of enthusiastic attendees! Many thanks to the WEX Center, University of California Irvine, for hosting the training. More photos on the WEX Center website.
If you would like to be notified about an in-person/online training course in the future, please email us.

Dynamita is happy to introduce a new service to help clients who would typically use Sumo intermittently, while an annual subscription is beyond their budget. From now on, premiering in the market, it is possible to rent Sumo on a weekly basis, as a cloud-based software: Sumo for Rent.
This new service is not only flexible in terms of subscription length, but also offers platform-independence: you can run Sumo on any device that has a browser and Internet connection (even your cell phone). No need for software installation and license activation: just sign up, receive a password and you're ready to go! For further details about Sumo for Rent, please check out the Products page.

Heads-up in the Golden State, a three-day Sumo training course is coming up in the Spring! This will also be the first in-person training in a long time, which some of you (and us!) might prefer to online trainings, so take the chance and sign up... 😊 Please check out the training flyer for the exact schedule and registration emails.

On behalf of the whole Dynamita Team, our Sumo mascot wishes you a joyful ending of this year. We'll be reconnecting in 2024, preparing a new release with yummy new functionalities.

Dynamita's Digital Twin was not missing from IWA's Digital Water Forum 2023, held in Bilbao, Spain. It was a huge success and big fun to participate as it is obvious from Imre's face 😊

Dynamita folks reunited in SW France during the last week of April. It was great to meet each other again and greet our soon-to-be colleague, Sabrina (announcement to come later). Lots of fun, great food, some kayaking on the Lake of Arjuzanx, a lovely stroll in Bordeaux and crawling atop the great sand dune of Pilat made sure we don't get stranded behind our computers, still we made good progress work-wise as well.
As a result of that, Sumo 22.1 became available for download. For details about the changes in this release, please check out the What’s new in Sumo 22.1 document. This install will replace your existing 22.0 but can coexist with earlier versions (21, 19).

After the first ever and best ever WRRmod conference in Africa in Cape Town, and recognizing the challenges African universities and startups face, Dynamita is pleased to announce the following support package:
To any university accredited and located in Africa - we are pleased to provide free unlimited perpetual licenses for the Sumo process simulation package including Digital Twin capabilities.
Any one- or two-person startup from Africa can claim a one year license of Sumo free of charge in their first year of operation.
This program will stand (at least) for the next ten years, until 2033.
Our hope is that this will result in cleaner environment and less bottled water in Africa. Free and Open source!

WRRmod2022+ is soon to start in Stellenbosch, South Africa. We are proud platinum sponsors of this event and wish all participants to enjoy and benefit from the interesting programme. Dynamita is going to be represented in person by Daniel, Dwight and Imre - feel free to have a chat with us at the conference venue.
