Webinar Summary

The way digital technologies and data are shaping our cities and communities, and the economy is the challenge for the decade. This is a decade that is relying on dramatic transformation to achieve our climate commitments, productivity gains, and enhance human prosperity and well-being.

The built environment (that we shape) is one of the most significant contributors to our well-being and prosperity. Organisations need forward-thinking planners who understand the new industry dynamics and competitive pressures.

The goal of this webinar is to support the capability development of planners (from public and private sector) in shaping high-performing built and natural environments and will help you gain the skills you need to boost your Digital Twin readiness – readiness to engage, plan and create.

This webinar will cover fundamentals – definitions, benefits, standards, capabilities maturity and examples of use cases and case studies. The four step Digital Twin pathway will also be overviewed.
