In this episode of BPP TechSphere, host Idris Fabiyi sits down with Sean Rafter, Head of Curriculum for Data and AI at BPP, to demystify one of the most powerful and misunderstood technologies on the horizon. Sean, a self-confessed sci-fi and science fan, explains the real-world applications of creating a living, breathing digital version of a physical object.

In this episode, you will learn:

• A simple, clear definition of what a digital twin actually is and how it's used to test and innovate. 
• The fascinating reasons that inspired Sean to author a white paper on the topic, from a love of the Netflix series Altered Carbon to professional "horizon scanning" for the skills of the future. 
• Real-world examples of how digital twins are already being used by companies like Airbus to test jet engines and by planners to model the future of entire cities.
• Tune in to move past the buzzwords and understand the remarkable impact of digital twin technology.
