"A Shared Vision for a Better World: Standards for Sustainable Development Goals"
World Standards Day is on October 14 and serves as a global celebration of the collaborative efforts made by organisations, regulatory bodies, and individuals in the development and maintenance of international standards. These standards are the cornerstones of innovation and growth, enriching industries, and enhancing safety, quality, and interoperability.
As we approach World Standards Day, Trust-IT Services proudly stands as a proactive contributor to European standardisation initiatives. In alignment with the European Union's vision for standardisation, outlined in the European Standardisation Strategy, Trust-IT Services is actively engaged in three important projects: HSbooster.eu, StandICT.eu, and SEEBLOCKS. These projects are at the forefront of advancing standardisation, fostering innovation, and promoting collaboration, in sync with the EU's aspirations for a standardised, innovative, and collaborative future.
HSbooster.eu: Pioneering Harmonised Standards
HSbooster.eu is a pilot project contributing to elevating European standardisation impact. It offers free standardisation guidance services to Horizon Europe, Horizon 2020, and Digital Europe research and innovation projects. With the aim of nurturing the next generation of standardisation experts and strong support from an Expert Advisory Group, the project aligns with the European Union's 2023 standardisation goals. It effectively bridges the gap between innovation and standardisation experts, contributing to a shared vision for a better world.
StandICT.eu: Boosting European Standardisation for ICT
StandICT.eu 2026 is committed to promoting the development and adoption of European ICT standards. In our fast-paced digital world, the importance of up-to-date standards cannot be underestimated. We actively encourage European involvement in global standards development to reinforce Europe's technological leadership. StandICT.eu also offers funding opportunities for standardisation experts to participate in SDO activities through calls for proposals.
SEEBLOCKS: Standardising Blockchain for Sustainability
The SEEBLOCKS project centres on the standardisation of blockchain technology, with a specific focus on its potential for sustainability. By establishing common standards for blockchain applications in areas such as supply chain management and renewable energy, SEEBLOCKS is promoting transparency, security, and sustainability. This groundbreaking initiative is poised to revolutionise industries and advocate for environmentally responsible practices.
