DESCRIPTION:The talk is based on “The local governance of digital techno
 logy – Implications for the city-scale digital twin” project which inv
 estigated how existing governance systems influence the design and impleme
 ntation of city digital twins (CDTs). It highlighted the importance of bui
 lding a better understanding of the complex ways in which the social and t
 echnical spheres interact and impact the invention and adoption of new tec
 hnologies\, such as CDTs. Several practical recommendations were developed
  through a case study of relevant urban governance structures and processe
 s in the Cambridge sub-region. These point to the importance of considerin
 g user and community perspectives\, and evaluating technology options thro
 ugh the effectiveness\, efficiency and democratic quality of the evidence 
 they can provide for decision-making.\n
