If it was me, I would start looking at the battery voltage.
It that is OK (> 12.5 volts) I would suggest that you might look at the gear selector position.

That must be in P or N to start the car. I think the selector electrics can play up and possibly the car thinks it is in D or R.
What is displayed on the dashboard regarding the gear position when you turn on the ignition?

EIS possibly, a common problem on them

Have you checked fuses? 6,7,19 and 27.

Also if it's an EIS fault what are the symptoms

When you turn the key to the start position do you get anything at all? A click for example?

Here's another guess:

Turn on the headlights, wait a moment or two, then turn the key to start in the usual way. Do the lights go dim?
If so, the battery is suspect. If not, then discount the battery and start looking furthr afield, as suggested above.

But without more basic information, guesses are all you're going to get. Hopefully one of them might hit the mark.
