Eiffel Software announced that Bertrand Meyer will be a member of the SPLASH/OOPSLA 40th anniversary panel titled Escaped from the Lab: ACM’s SPLASH Influences on the Future of Software at SPLASH/OOPSLA in Oakland, California on October 4–9, 2026.

Eiffel Software is recognized as the thought leader in making software projects predictable and controllable. EiffelStudio, the company’s flagship product and Integrated Development Environment (IDE), enables you to translate the real-world model in your head directly into a fully functioning implementation, seamlessly maintaining at all times a close correspondence between the two. When the requirements evolve, you know exactly where in the code to make the change. The result is systems that are developed quickly, work the first time around, and are easy to adapt when the world and the needs change. The company was founded in 1985 by Dr. Bertrand Meyer, pioneer and guru in Object-Oriented Programming. Since then, we have crafted solutions to the industry’s most challenging areas such as bug prevention, code reuse, testing, parallel computing and incorporating them into EiffelStudio. Through the development of robust, efficient and easy-to-use application development tools, we are proud to have made a difference in how software is developed, and will continue to lead in the quest for better quality software development tools.
