Abstract
There are several industries that have shown significant advancements in using digital twin capabilities. Healthcare, life sciences, and fintech constitute a powerful trifecta that can profoundly impact society at a global scale. The design and deployment of digital twins is complex and intimately connected to other digital technologies. However, in order to be successful, we will also need to overcome some of the challenges faced with any emerging technologies and mitigate against the risks of maleficent use. Specifically, ethics, cybersecurity concerns, and cross-industry standards will be on the agenda of most enterprises wishing to deploy digital twins. By leveraging a combined deployment of digital twins with other emerging technologies, we could potentially build a highly performant global digital twin ecosystem. Futurists would even venture to envision the existence of state-of-the-art smart cities where digital healthcare twins, digital life sciences twins, digital finance twins would be part of our daily lives.
