Leveraging local partners in industry, academia, and government

BOSTON, MA – APRIL 18, 2023 – The Digital Twin Consortium® (DTC®) today announced it has expanded its Regional Branch Organizer (RBO) program to include India and Southeast Asia, critical regions for DTC and its parent company, the Object Management Group®, with members active in several industries.

DTC will work with members — Open Health Systems Laboratory (OHSL), Axomem, and Dell Technologies — to facilitate local and regional activities in India and Southeast Asia. The new RBOs will facilitate and drive local DTC engagements and activities with regional industry, government, and academic institutions on behalf of the consortium throughout India and Southeast Asia.

“India and Southeast Asia are known for technological innovation,” said Dan Isaacs, GM, and CTO, of DTC. “We look forward to furthering the adoption of digital twins throughout the region, working with our new RBOs.”

“As the RBO for India, OHSL will collaborate with other RBOs across the globe to conduct a series of local Digital Twin Consortium events and joint promotional activities,” said Anil Srivastava, President of OHSL. “We’ll bring industry, academia, and digital twin providers together to accelerate the meaningful and pervasive deployment of artificial intelligence and digital twins across all sectors of the economy.”

Sean Whiteley, the founder of Axomem, a digital twin startup based in Singapore, said, “Axomem is looking forward to being the inaugural RBO for Southeast Asia. We’re already collaborating on local projects using digital twin technologies to predict disease in acute-care hospitals. We’ll be working with partners in healthcare and other industries, including manufacturing, telecommunications, energy, and government across Southeast Asia, to promote the value and adoption of digital twins.”
