Math2Market GmbH

Math2Market GmbH is a German software company headquartered in Kaiserslautern that develops and supports GeoDict, a platform for image-based materials engineering. GeoDict combines multi-scale 3D image processing, digital material modeling, visualization, material property characterization, and physics-based simulation, allowing researchers and engineers to develop and optimize materials virtually rather than relying solely on physical laboratory testing. The company describes GeoDict as "the most complete software solution for multi-scale 3D image processing, modeling of materials, visualization, material property characterization, simulation-based material development, and optimization of processes." Math2Market was founded in 2011 as a spin-off from the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics (ITWM) in Kaiserslautern by three members of the original GeoDict development team. Software development behind GeoDict began in 2001, and the company has since expanded the product into a comprehensive platform for materials research, development, and digital engineering. GeoDict is used across application areas including battery materials, fuel cells, filtration, digital rock physics, digital material R&D, pharmaceutical formulation, additive manufacturing, and 3D image processing and analysis. The company serves a global user community of more than 550 universities, research institutes, and large companies from various industries. Its GeoDict Academic Innovator Program is aimed at researchers and students from universities who wish to use the software for material research and development. In 2025, Math2Market expanded its international presence with the establishment of Math2Market North America Inc., and it works with a network of sales and support partners worldwide to provide local expertise and customer support. Math2Market positions GeoDict as a way to replace extensive experimental testing and costly physical prototyping with virtual materials development, helping organizations shorten development cycles, reduce costs, and make better-informed engineering decisions. Image-based modeling and simulation also support non-destructive material characterization and quality assurance. The company collaborates closely with partners from industry and academia to continuously advance GeoDict and address emerging challenges in materials science.

Math2Market GmbH was founded in 2011 as a spin-off from the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics (ITWM) in Kaiserslautern, Germany, by three members of the original GeoDict development team. The software development that would become GeoDict began in 2001, giving the product a decade of development before the company was formally established to commercialize and support it. Building on that foundation, Math2Market continuously expanded GeoDict into a comprehensive platform for materials research, development, and digital engineering. GeoDict grew to combine multi-scale 3D image processing, digital material models, and physics-based simulation, enabling researchers and engineers to accelerate materials development, optimize products, and reduce the need for physical testing. Over time, GeoDict found use across a wide range of application areas, including battery materials, fuel cells, filtration, digital rock physics, digital material R&D, pharmaceutical formulation, additive manufacturing, and 3D image processing and analysis. The company reports that more than 550 universities, research institutes, and large companies from various industries worldwide use GeoDict. Math2Market develops and supports GeoDict from its headquarters in Kaiserslautern, Germany. In 2025, the company expanded its international presence with the establishment of Math2Market North America Inc. Together with a trusted network of sales and support partners around the world, Math2Market provides local expertise and customer support to a growing global user community. The company also runs the GeoDict Academic Innovator Program for researchers and students from universities, and works closely with partners from industry and academia to continuously advance GeoDict and address emerging challenges in materials science.
