Mission & Goals
BDTA is a non-profit association with the mission of developing an Open & Trustworthy Techno-economic Ecosystem to advance towards full implementation of Building Digital Twin Environments across all the stakeholders and lifecycles of AECOO (Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Owner & Operator) Smart and Connected Real State and Infrastructure Assets, including occupants, through professional development and community. Located in Antwerp (Belgium), the BDTA was founded under the umbrella of the Horizon 2020 project SPHERE, funded by the European Union’s H2020 programme under Grant Agreement No. 820805).
