Digital Twin Hub

Digital twins and interoperable, connected digital twins are significant tools for fighting the global, systemic challenges currently facing the world. Challenges like pandemics, climate change and resilience. They are key enablers for ensuring better outcomes for people and nature through a collaborative and coordinated approach to problem-solving.
