SUMMARY:WWRF HUDDLE 2025
DESCRIPTION:As the mobile industry debates the ROI from 4G and 5G\, the path to 6G remains uncertain—raising critical questions about sustainability\, profitability\, and innovation. WWRF Huddle 2025 will explore how 6G can deliver on the promises of ubiquitous intelligence\, sustainability\, and digital transformation. Through focused discussions on spectrum\, security\, standards\, and emerging use cases\, the event will address global priorities while highlighting regional opportunities\, particularly in Latin America. \nIn the fast-evolving mobile and wireless world\, it’s easy to focus on the technology i.e.—what’s new\, what’s next\, what’s ground-breaking. However\, there is ongoing debate within the wireless industry over the profitability and return on investment on 4G and 5G\, and what this may mean for next-generation technologies from the business perspective. Many feel that the industry is moving too fast\, resulting in reluctance to commit resources on 6G research and development. \nWWRF’s 2025 Huddle will look at how we can rehabilitate 6G R&D in a way that operators can seamlessly transition from 4G/5G to 6G while preserving their revenue potential from 5G and evolve to benefitting from 6G\, especially from the overarching visions of ubiquitous connectivity for all\, ubiquitous intelligence and sustainability as stipulated by ITU IMT-2030 framework. \nInDiCo-Global at WWRF HUDDLE 2025\nWe’re pleased to spotlight the WWRF Huddle panel\, “Global Standards Process – Role of ITU and 3GPP\,” on 23 September 2025 (13:30–14:45) in Brasília (details: https://wwrfhuddle.org/). At this session\, experts will share actionable insights on how global standards work in ITU and 3GPP are paving the path to 6G\, drawing lessons from 4G/5G on spectrum\, security\, and interoperability. They’ll also explore regional opportunities in Latin America and how international cooperation and shared frameworks can deliver scalable\, secure\, and inclusive digital ecosystems. \nWith close ties to our consortium\, ETSI is invited to contribute to the discussion\, offering perspectives on how standards work in ITU and 3GPP is shaping the pathway to 6G.

SUMMARY:Summer School on Standardisation
DESCRIPTION:Background\nOrganised by the University of Graz and part of the EDU4Standards initiative\, this Summer School focuses on the role of standardisation in the digital transformation of society. It offers an interdisciplinary perspective on how standards shape innovation\, technology\, policy\, and sustainability. \nProgramme\nThe summer school on stand-EUVI will start on 15 and 16 September 2025 with a basic module for all participants.\nOn Monday\, 15 September\, the participants and trainers will meet at 2 p.m. to get to know each other and start the topic of standardisation and values in a relaxed atmosphere. \nOn Tuesday\, 16 September\, the participants will acquire basic knowledge about ‘stand-EUVI’ together with trainers from science and standardisation institutes\, which they will actively integrate into their own working environment in the afternoon. \nFrom 17 September\, the summer school will continue in parallel in three workshops; these three workshops are aimed at: \n\nTechnology Transfer Officers  (led by Katrin Fladischer) → Sign in\nResearchers (led by Karl Grün) → Sign in\nTeachers (led by Elisabeth Staudegger) → Sign in\nIn all three slots\, concepts are to be developed that could later be rolled out sustainably.\n\nIt is important to emphasise\, that this summer school is a pilot of the Horizon Europe project EDU4Standards.eu; participation is free of charge.\nUNI for LIFE is a cooperation partner here and is interested in taking it over into ‘real operation’ after a successful pilot.

SUMMARY:Webinar 'CRA Standards Unlocked: From EN IEC 62443 to CRA: OT Cybersecurity for Important products Class I & II'
DESCRIPTION:With the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) entering into force\, the European regulatory landscape is shifting rapidly to address the cybersecurity of products with digital elements. To support this transition\, CENELEC TC65X WG3 is leading the adaptation of the internationally recognized EN IEC 62443 series into harmonized European standards (hENs) that meet the essential cybersecurity requirements of the CRA. \nThis webinar will present an in-depth look at the current and upcoming standardization activities\, with a focus on the amendment of EN IEC 62443-4-2:2019 into A11:2026\, which forms the foundation for technical security requirements in industrial and critical digital products. The work includes: \n\nAdapting existing cybersecurity requirements (CRs) and requirement enhancements (REs) to the CRA framework\nAdding or updating rationales for each requirement and enhancement\nIntroducing new REs and rationales to fill gaps based on CRA essential cybersecurity requirements\nDefining applicability criteria for all CRs and REs\nIntegrating the EN IEC TS 62443-6-2 evaluation approach\, including expected artefacts for conformity assessment\nSpecifying Security Level-based acceptance criteria for each requirement\n\nIn parallel\, EN IEC 62443-4-1:2018 is being amended to EN IEC 62443-4-1:2018/A11:2026 to strengthen alignment with the horizontal standard being currently developed under the CEN-CLC/JTC 13 WG 9 ‘Principles of Cyber Resilience’\, updating/adding requirements on the documentation of the ‘intended use’ and ‘security context’\, and the further specification/clarification of the expected development artefacts as an outcome of applying an EN IEC 62443-4-1 compliant product life cycle process. \nThese efforts will culminate in the development of six vertical standards targeting specific product categories listed in CRA Annex III—including VPNs\, routers\, SIEMs\, and firewalls—ensuring tailored\, product-relevant cybersecurity guidance. \nJoin us to gain a comprehensive understanding of how these standards are evolving\, what it means for your organization\, and how they will help meet CRA compliance through practical\, aligned\, and technically robust harmonized standards. \nSpeaker: Mr Srinath Pydi Narayana Rao.

SUMMARY:InDiCo-Global Webinar Series | Shaping Digital Governance in Latin America: Lessons from Chile
DESCRIPTION:Register here. \nLatin America\, and especially Chile\, has been experiencing recent regulatory developments in the field of technology. These changes are particularly significant in areas such as data protection\, cybersecurity\, the digital economy\, and artificial intelligence\, and are largely inspired by and aligned with European frameworks. As a result\, ICT standards have become increasingly relevant both in Chile and across the region. \nWhile regulation is important\, it is equally necessary to create spaces for connection among various stakeholders\, including private and public entities\, academia\, and decision-makers. This is essential to ensure that the implementation of such regulations is harmonious. Thus\, it is crucial to support these kinds of regulatory and technological standardization dialogues. \nIn this context\, the Law\, Science and Technology Program at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile\, in collaboration and with the support of the EU initiative InDiCo-Global\, seeks to promote knowledge exchange between European experts and local actors. In this session\, members of the team will address: \n\nRecent technological regulations in Chile\, with a special focus on data protection and cybersecurity.\nHow voluntary standards and regulation interact in Chile\nThe importance of knowledge exchange and the need for cooperation through joint projects in the region.\n\nThis webinar aims to provide regulatory and standardization context that initially motived the cooperation between InDiCo Global and the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. It will be particularly useful for those looking to understand the latest regulatory changes in Chile in the areas of Data Protection\, Cybersecurity\, and Fintech\, as well as the importance of regional cooperation on standards. \nWho should attend\n\nLegal professionals.\nAcademics and researchers in public policy\, technology\, or law.\nTechnology industry leaders.\nPublic sector representatives.\nNational security agencies and related entities.\nStudents interested in exploring this field for their future careers.\n\n> Watch the Recording

SUMMARY:Workshop: Cyber Resilience Act and the horizontal standards
DESCRIPTION:The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) aims to enhance EU cybersecurity by ensuring that digital products and services remain secure throughout their lifecycle. It promotes proactive risk management and accountability\, enabling businesses and users to collaborate in building a safer digital future. To support CRA implementation\, the European Commission has issued a standardization request to the European Standardization Organizations\, focusing on both horizontal standards for a generic framework and vertical standards for specific product risks. This workshop will highlight the work on the horizontal standards required for CRA compliance. \nThe workshop will give an overview of the Cyber Resilience Act\, highlighting the key role of standardization and the way forward. The workshop will provide a comprehensive understanding of how standards can effectively mitigate risks\, enhance cybersecurity posture\, and ensure that products and services are aligned with the legal expectations set forth by the Act. \nThe workshop is an opportunity for participants to engage in discussions on two critical sets of standards that are currently under development: \nPrinciples for cyber resilience: Designing\, developing\, and producing products with digital elements in such a way that they ensure an appropriate level of cybersecurity based on the risks. Vulnerability handling for products with digital elements.

SUMMARY:Standardisation in Practice: Towards a CEN-CENELEC Workshop Agreement
DESCRIPTION:Standardisation is a valuable approach to enhance the recognition of research results\, and many research projects strive to broaden the user network for their findings by actively participating in standardisation processes. In cases where no ongoing standardisation efforts are underway in a specific context of interest and a widespread impact is desired\, especially across diverse sectors and stakeholders\, establishing a CEN-CENELEC Workshop to formulate a CWA (CEN-CENELEC Workshop Agreement) can be a prudent choice. This method is the most expedient for developing standards\, as it involves an ad hoc group\, making it particularly well-suited for the outcomes of Research and Innovation (R&I). It can also serve as the initial step towards a future European standard (EN) or International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) standard.\n\nThis training session is designed to assist R&I projects in enhancing their understanding of the CEN-CENELEC Workshop and CWA. It addresses key questions such as how to initiate the CWA process\, what prerequisites need to be met\, and the required resources\, and provides advice from experienced research projects.\n\n\nWho should attend?\nThe training session is intended for the researchers who participate in EU-funded R&I projects and anyone interested in the basics of standardisation. \nLearn more
