Slide3Overall goal for ETSI
Increase the relevance of ETSI’s technical activities for its membersBreadth: new activities in new ICT domains for ETSI
Depth: increase the scale of standardization in existing domains
Bring
new members to ETSITo participate in new activitiesMake ETSI the ‘Must Consult’ standards body for ICTInnovation, Research and Standards - The ETSI View

Slide4Research input to Standards
European strength in collaborative R&D
ICT
markets are shaped by standards
de facto, industry, fora, SDOsEuropean R&D in ICT must lead to standards activityDeveloping new products, new services, new marketsDriving, not disseminating
Input is not enough – longer term participation is required

Slide5Mind the gap
Standardisation can take time, or time window can close
Funding shortfall
Different
objectives between R&D project and standards committeePopulation differencesToo much choice of standards bodies?Innovation, Research and Standards - The ETSI View

Slide6COPRAS guidelines
FP6 IST project between CEN, CENELEC, ETSI, W3C, The Open Group
Produced “Standardization Guidelines for IST research projects interfacing with ICT standards organizations”
http://www.w3.org/2004/copras/docu/generic-guidelines.pdf
COPRAS raised some issues for projects:What to standardise?Choosing the right standards bodiesGetting the timing rightFunding – for membership, travel and timeWhich partner(s) participate
IPR ownership, or who can contribute what?Now is the time to address these for FP7Plan for standardisation activities

Slide7Issues for standards bodies
SDOs have responsibility toward R&D activitiesReduce barriers to input from R&D projects
Membership cost
Participation cost
Access to informationGuidance and help in navigating an SDOIncubator or start-up groups for new topicsImprove visibility of R&D project impact on standardsRecognition for submissionsRecognition for retained resultsMaintain dialogue between SDOs and R&D

Slide8What has ETSI done?
Creation of ‘New Initiatives’ team in Secretariat
Your gateway to ETSI
Help on creating an ISG , finding existing TBs, founding a new TB
Incubator or pre-standardisation groupsIndustry Specification GroupWorkshops and events with R&D communityHosting at ETSI, and attending, listening
Reduced barriers to access and participationReduced membership fees and easier access
For Universities & Public Research BodiesFor
SMEs & Micro EnterprisesElectronic participation
Standards available for free on the internet
Complete access with single username/password
Partner in selected R&D projects

Slide9ISG mechanism can specifically address the needs of a forum or consortium
Ideal for Pre-StandardizationBringing research results into StandardsISG can evolve into a full ETSI Technical Body
Is fast and easy to set up
Minimum 4 ETSI members necessary, approved by Director General
Flexible and adaptiveAn ISG has its own operating rules (including voting rules)ISGs rely on the well proven ETSI IPR policyThe ETSI Secretariat will provide basic support free of chargeSpecifications from an ISG are official ETSI deliverablesPermanently in ETSI publications catalogue
