Digital simulations open up real-world possibilities

Our topic today is the industrial metaverse, which, unlike the consumer version, is based on simulation and large-scale digital twins. These are familiar technologies to manufacturing and R&D efforts. These large-scale digital twins, representing whole manufacturing plants, cities, or other highly complex human systems, can provide an interface between the physical and digital world that can make the real world work better for its inhabitants. Two words for you: virtual possibilities. My guest is Peter Koerte. Peter is the chief technology and strategy officer at Siemens.
