Organizations in many industries have begun adopting graph databases to solve their toughest business challenges. With the advent of digital twins, a type of data representing real-world objects, graph database technology has become even more relevant for use cases ranging from knowledge graphs to fraud prevention to master data management.

The concept of the digital twin has its roots in engineering graphics, arising from continuous product design and engineering improvement. Product drawings and engineering specifications progressed from manual drafting to computer-aided design (CAD) to model-based systems engineering (MBSE).

Hosted by Neo4j Chief Scientist Dr. Jim Weber, this event features two VPs of the APAC region – Richard Jones from Dataiku and Nik Vora from Neo4j – who share their insights from marrying graphs and digital twins to solve enterprise challenges. This thought leadership webinar is the second in our new digital event series, Connected Data for APAC.
