Bentley Systems has finally gone public after flirting with the idea of an IPO for years. The CAD industry giant had its IPO (initial public offering) of 10.75 million shares of its Class B common stock at a price to the public of USD 22.00 per share.

The shares of the Class B common stock offered in the IPO were being sold by existing stockholders in Bentley. Shares trade on the NASDAQ under the symbol “BSY.”

Financial Details

The selling stockholders granted the underwriters in the offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,610,991 shares of Class B common stock from the selling stockholders.

Greg Bentley, CEO of Bentley Systems, talking about his company’s technology around Digital Twins. Digital Twins merge three key aspects that go far beyond BIM—(1) ‘Digital Chronology’ adding the key component of time (iTwin Cloud Services) to both design and operations, (2) ‘Digital Context’ through reality capture technology, again data that has been time-stamped, and (3) ‘Digital Components’ which merge their engineering design tools with machine learning (AI) so that infrastructure professionals can make smarter design and operations decisions.
