Resonating themes

Read more about the key topics discussed during the week.

Sustainability and climate

Working together to address the challenges of climate change and advance environmental sustainability, panellists agreed on the need to combine traditional wisdom with new technologies and innovation. Standards can act as the bridge between these two worlds.

Technology

Rapid advancements in AI, the metaverse and tech convergence present unique challenges and opportunities for the standards world. Leading experts shared their insights to help prepare us for what’s to come.

Policy, trade and trust

The vital theme of trust resonated across discussions on trade and anti-corruption. Two new ISO toolkits – ISO Policy Toolkit and ISO Climate Action Toolkit – will help close the gap between governments and the standards community. 

Memorable moments

This year’s LDE Award went to the trailblazing committee on AI, celebrating their effective leadership and innovation, while promising standards talent Neema Msemwa from Tanzania took the 2023 Next Generation Award.

Diversity and inclusion

Participants explored new ways of bringing greater diversity and inclusivity to standards. Thinking beyond a one-size-fits-all approach will ensure we remain relevant and our standards work for everyone.

Networking and social aspects

It is in conversations that momentum for true change is born. The inaugural “Unplugged Corner” offered a chance to connect on topics during coffee breaks and lunches.
