Description
SimEx-Iwerks specialised in film-based attractions, delivering both ride systems and films for such rides.
History
SimEx-Iwerks was created in 2002 by the merger of SimEx Inc. and Iwerks Entertainment. The origins of SimEx lie in Canada, where the company was founded in 1984 to create motion ride attractions. Iwerks, on the other hand, was predominantly a film studio which was founded in 1985 by a group of former Disney-employees, among others Disney Legend Don Iwerks.
