Slingshot Simulations hosted the Digital Twin Consortium for a Sustainable Digital Twin Event Information Day.
This event brought together international industry heavyweights with technical pioneers and the Digital Twin Consortium.
The focus: Sustainable Digital Twins.
Here at Slingshot, we define a Sustainable Digital Twin as a twin which “integrates and analyses data, simulates outcomes, and is implemented in a sustainable way while focusing on sustainable outcomes”.
Our event involved a panel discussion, practical demonstrations and presentations.
The overall focus was ‘How can digital twin technology be used to reach Net Zero goals?’.
“This event was a fantastic opportunity to showcase the potential of Sustainable Digital Twins and their positive environmental impact with global tech leaders and huge industry heavy-weights.”
