It’s an exciting time for the team at Bold Valuable Technology. Since the company was founded in 2019, it’s made impressive progress delivering on its objective to make Formula 1 battery technology available at scale, both in the automotive and aerospace industries, as well as marine applications.

From a state-of-the-art facility overlooking the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya racetrack, some of the electrification and aerospace industry’s best minds are developing the next generation of high-performance batteries, including BoldAir, a market-leading 285 watt-hour per kilogram high-voltage battery system specifically designed for advanced air mobility applications. In a very short timeframe, Bold has gone from a sheet of requirements to the design verification plan and report phase, with production expected to commence within months. And it’s all been possible thanks to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on cloud.

Bold Valuable Technology takes advantage of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on cloud to design and engineer all aspects of its custom high-voltage battery systems. Here, Jon Ander Ferri is designing BoldAir battery pack for electric aviation.

Bold’s battery developments combine cutting-edge cell technology and carbon fiber structural assemblies to create lightweight, highly optimized energy storage systems. Possessing industry-leading thermal runaway containment properties (preventing lithium-ion cells from overheating and self-destructing), they’re ideal for high-performance applications and meet stringent aerospace safety requirements.

“Our success is linked to speed, technology and innovation,” said Gerard Torres, chief operating officer at Bold Valuable Technology. “The 3DEXPERIENCE platform allows us to tap into these three verticals and make sure that we are delivering the solutions that our customers expect by being extremely fast, innovative and having the best technological solution to address their challenges.”

As Bold grows its headcount and takes on bigger, more complex projects, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform’s robust data management capabilities ensure a seamless digital thread from one development stage to the next without losing information along the way. This helps to speed up development time, bring down costs and keep track of all design changes.
