How can you get involved?
Standardization is essential to promote trust in and the acceptance of artificial intelligence. There are many ways in which you can participate. At DIN you can participate in developing standards and specifications. And getting involved is worth it: Companies and organizations can bring their own interests into the standardization process and thus actively shape the future of their sector.
Initiate standards
A DIN SPEC (DIN Specification) is the fastest way to take an innovative idea and establish it on the market. In a small, temporary workshop of experts, a specification can be developed within a few months. DIN SPECs are trusted strategic instruments for quickly and easily establishing and disseminating innovative solutions on the market.
Participate in standardization
DIN Standards are the results of work at national, European and/or international level. Standards are developed in committees at DIN, at the European standards organization CEN/CENELEC or at the international standards organization ISO/IEC according to defined principles, procedural rules and rules of presentation. All stakeholders can participate in this work, including manufacturers, consumers, businesses, academic institutes, research institutes, public authorities and testing bodies.
Setting the timetable
The Standardization Roadmap AI will be regularly updated and refined to take into account changing requirements. A kick-off event on 20 January 2021 commenced the work. Experts from industry, civil society, science and the public sector are invited to contribute to the second edition of the Roadmap. Experts are also welcome to get involved with the implementation of action recommendations from the first edition.
