Morphology
The meaning 'a formal discussion held by a group of people' is directly derivable from combining 'panel' (a committee-like group) with 'discussion' (a talk where opinions are shared). This noun‑noun compositional pattern is common in English and mirrored in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
The phrase panel discussion comes from the image of a panel — a row of people sitting together — who have a discussion about a topic in front of an audience. So, panel discussion means 'a formal talk by a group of people' where experts share their views.
