CEN AND CENELEC UNVEIL THEIR STRATEGY 2030

Brussels, 1 February 2021 – CEN and CENELEC are proud to announce the publication of their new Strategy 2030. This high-level, forward-looking document will help guide and shape the work of the two European standardization organisations and their 44 members across 34 European countries throughout the decade to come.

Through the new Strategy, the CEN and CENELEC community aims at “Building a safer, more sustainable and competitive Europe through European and International Standardization”. To achieve this, the organisations state as their mission: “through our stakeholders’ networks, we create consensus-based standards in order to generate trust, fulfil market requirements, enable market access and innovations for a better, safer and more sustainable Europe”.

The Strategy 2030 establishes a series of five goals that will guide CEN and CENELEC’s actions in the next decade:

1. EU and EFTA recognize and use the strategic value of the European standardization system
2. Our customers and stakeholders benefit from state-of-the-art digital solutions
3. Increase the use and awareness of CEN and CENELEC deliverables
4. The CEN and CENELEC system to be the preferred choice for standardization in Europe
5. Strengthen our leadership and ambition at the international level

As a strategic framework for CEN, CENELEC and their respective members, the Strategy 2030 will provide a frame of reference to ensure complementarity, coherence and consistency across the strategic exercises and long-term objectives of all actors in the CEN and CENELEC community.

CEN and CENELEC will start the implementation of their common Strategy 2030 over the course of 2021. The full text of the document can be downloaded here.
