The Evolution of Digital Twins

Peggy Smedley and Julien Moutte, chief technology officer, Bentley Systems, talk about how the digital twin is evolving—and what is coming in the next five years with the rise of AI (artificial intelligence). He says five years ago when we were talking about digital twins, many people were saying it is still a buzzword, and it is amazing to see what has happened in the past five years.

They also discuss:

· The importance of data interoperability to achieve smarter infrastructure across the lifecycle of a project.

· The convergence of digital twin, BIM (building information modeling), GIS (geographic information systems), and the IoT (Internet of Things).

· His approach to fostering a culture of innovation, as a CTO.

· Partnerships and acquisitions at the company.
