The European Internet Forum hosted a policy debate on the future of the European Standardisation System at a time of rapid technological change and growing global competition. The discussion brought together representatives from the European Commission, European standardisation organisations, industry, and conformity assessment bodies to examine how the system can remain effective, inclusive, and internationally influential. Exchanges focused on the implementation of the EU Standardisation Strategy, the forthcoming revision of Regulation 1025/2012, and the need to reconcile speed, legal certainty, and global leadership. The event provided a timely platform for reflection as the Commission prepares its next steps on standardisation policy and the broader European Product Act.
