“The Digital Twin Hub is a key player in the world of digitisation and a vehicle to help the UK digitise at speed.”
Dr Alison Vincent
National Digital Twin
Enzer is the former head of the National Digital Twin programme. He served as Mott MacDonald’s CTO for five years and now acts as strategic adviser to its digital advisory business.
The full list of board members will be announced towards the end of July.
Dr Vincent said: “I am thrilled to be joining the Digital Twin Hub at such an important time in the development of digital twin technology in the UK and around the world. Digital twins are already helping to find the best solar panel locations in Singapore, manage people flow at train stations in London, and simulate the impact of natural disasters in Seoul.”
Digitising at speed
“Ultimately, digital twins and connected digital twins will give us a clear advantage in fighting global, systemic challenges like pandemics, climate change and inequality. The Digital Twin Hub is a key player in the world of digitisation and a vehicle to help the UK digitise at speed,” she added.
Prof Greg Clark CBE, chair of the board at Connected Places Catapult, said: “We recognise the immense opportunities presented by digital twins in better understanding our built environment, mobility systems, and decarbonisation pathways; enabling the creation of digital twin ecosystems for public good.
“With Alison and Mark at the helm, I am confident that the Digital Twin Hub will accelerate in providing the community with a network to learn from, resources to draw from, and opportunities to work collaboratively to take these technologies to the next level.”
