Around the world, the technical standard-setting process is a cumbersome but necessary business. But is there a better way to do it? Can we devise a more flexible, dynamic system for setting standards and norms that would adapt more quickly to changing technologies and local member-state needs? A panel, organised by the Science|Business Innovation Board AISBL, would include original research on the topic by Board member ESADE Business School.
