Why StandICT.eu?
StandICT.eu is the response to a call of the European Commission for reinforcing European presence in international ICT standardisation, following an analysis of the current standards landscape showing that only 37% of the different WGs are European and that EU influence is much less in data (33%) cloud computing (29%) and cybersecurity (27%).
StandICT.eu focuses on the five domains the EC has identified for being crucial to successfully implement the Digital Single Market: Cloud Computing, IoT, Big Data, Cyber Security, and 5G.
StandICT.eu looks to redress this imbalance by providing funding opportunities for long-term European contributions to WGs including holding chair or co-chair positions.
StandICT.eu is a 24 month’s project (started 1 Jan 2018) with the two partners Trust-IT Services (project coordinator) and Fraunhofer SCAI.
