Digital Data Chain Consortium (DDCC) and Industrial Digital Twin Association (IDTA) signed a Memorandum of Understanding at the ACHEMA trade fair in Frankfurt am Main on 24 August 2022. The aim of the cooperation is to jointly build a global ecosystem for interoperable Digital Twins for industry based on the Asset Administration Shell (AAS).

Industrial Digital Twin Association (IDTA) and Open Manufacturing Platform (OMP) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to build and consolidate a successful global ecosystem for interoperable industrial Digital Twins and in particular the Asset Administration Shell (AAS).

Dr. Thomas Kuhn from Fraunhofer IESE, as representative of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft for the project "BaSys", signed a "Memorandum of Understanding" ( MoU) with the Industrial Digital Twin Association e.V. (IDTA) at Hannover Messe 2022. The two partners are thus establishing a contractually agreed cooperation for the standardisation of Asset Administration Shells for industry.

Both associations aim to merge sustainability and digitalisation in order to advance climate protection in industry. This is the key point of the Memorandum of Understanding between the technology initiative SmartFactory KL e.V. (SF-KL) and the Industrial Digital Twin Association e.V. (IDTA).
