Abstract: Timings: 45 Minutes + 15 minutes for questions. International Standards enable global trade, address issues of environmental sustainability and place ethical guardrails around emerging technologies. Have you thought about getting involved? Standards are a collaborative effort and incorporate a diverse range of perspectives. They are developed by drawing on a wide range of skills and capabilities to navigate complexity and ambiguity, and they need your input. The Department of Industry, Science & Resources, in partnership with IEEE SA (Standards Association), is seeking involvement from subject matter experts across a range of technology domains. We are aiming to ensure the Australian perspective is well-represented in a global, multi-stakeholder, industry led and consensus driven standards development framework. This presentation provides an understanding of the standards ecosystem, why you should be involved, pathways to participation and available government support.
