The Legal roundtables were a collaboration between the Commons team and Gemini Programme volunteer, Sarah Rock of Gowling WLG. It consisted of a series of four virtual roundtables running from 18 November to 9 December 2020, chaired by Gowling and attended by eight lawyers with recognised expertise across a range of specialisms, from different sectors.  

The aim of the roundtables was to discuss the legal landscape facing the establishment and broad adoption of a National Digital Twin, covering areas such as; IP, commercial and financial risk, skills needs, technology and privacy, amongst others. The Outcomes Report summarised the discussion that took place and the outcomes gathered which will be used to  inform the development of a programme of work for the Legal Pathway in 2021.
