of what we do and we will be positioning the iTwin platform as a
very important tool for collaboration.
The other aspect is, of course, infrastructure intelligence or

technology, which can orchestrate IoT, machine learning / AI,
numerical models and other simulation tools. You don’t see people

digital twins. If you see the acquisition that we made for geothermal,
