Brief Description
DIN, the German Institute for Standardization, is the independent platform for standardization in Germany and worldwide. As a partner for industry, research and society as a whole, DIN plays a major role to supporting the marketability of innovative solutions through standardization - be it in topics around the digitization of business and society or in the context of research projects. More than 36,500 experts from industry, research, consumer protection and the public sector bring their expertise to work on standardization projects managed by DIN. The results of these efforts are market-oriented standards and specifications that promote global trade, encouraging rationalization, quality assurance and environmental protection as well as improving security and communication.
Role in the U_CAN Project
In the U_CAN project, DIN will be responsible for leading the standardization activities related to the project. This will include the analysis of relevant existing standards, the identification of standardization potential and the initiation of standardization (which could lead to the development of for example, CEN Workshop Agreements or the contribution to ongoing standardization activities). DIN will be the focal point for standardization and will foster the interaction with standardization bodies in Ukraine and Europe, among others.
