Built environment monthly webinar -

Recorded: 23 June 2021 (12.00 - 13.00 UK time)

What’s this webinar about?

We want to examine the use of digital twins in the built environment, and cover:

• What twins are, what they’re for, if they should be connected and what happens as a result
• Digital twins in the built environment, in particular in relation to assets, systems (such as highways and energy networks), processes (such as resilience planning and governance), and systems-of-systems (such as public transport or healthcare and cities)
• The factors impacting the adoption of digital twins such as finance, insurance, regulation and the creation of new ways to trade information

Who is this webinar for?

• Organizations that are creating, managing and using digital twins of assets, systems, processes and systems-of-systems
• Commercial vendors delivering digital solutions to support all phases of the asset lifecycle
• Built environment professionals e.g. architects, engineers and serial clients

What will you gain?

• A greater understanding of the nature, possibilities and challenges of adopting digital twins for the built environment
