Your direct line to government: Ask the national digital twin programme anything

Ever wondered what the UK government is actually doing to advance digital twin capability nationwide? Here's your chance to ask directly. Alex Luck, Programme Director of the National Digital Twin Programme (NDTP) from the Department of Business & Trade, opens the floor for your questions about the centralised government-led effort shaping the future of digital twinning across the UK.

This rare Q&A session provides unprecedented access to the leadership driving national digital twin strategy, policy, and capability development—your opportunity to understand government priorities, influence direction, and clarify how national initiatives can support your work.

What this session offers:

Direct government access: Engage directly with the NDTP Programme Director about national digital twin strategy, funding opportunities, policy developments, and capability-building initiatives.

Strategic clarity: Understand how government-led efforts align with industry needs and how national programmes can support your organisation's digital twin ambitions.

Policy insights: Learn about upcoming initiatives, regulatory considerations, standards development, and cross-sector collaboration opportunities being coordinated at national level.

Community voice: Ensure your sector's challenges, needs, and perspectives are heard by those shaping national digital twin policy and investment decisions.

Beyond the press releases

While others showcase flashy digital twin visualisations, this session addresses the critical question: how do you effectively structure national-scale data so digital twins can actually deliver on their promises?

Your questions matter

Whether you're concerned about interoperability standards, seeking clarity on funding mechanisms, wondering about sector-specific support, or wanting to understand how national and local initiatives connect—this is your forum.

Shape national direction

This isn't just information-sharing—it's an opportunity for the digital twin community to inform government understanding of real-world implementation challenges and emerging needs.

Perfect for digital twin practitioners, policy makers, industry leaders, local authority representatives, infrastructure operators, technology providers, academic researchers, and anyone whose work intersects with national digital twin initiatives.
