The British Standards Institution (BSI) hosted an excellent and varied meeting of the ISO Consumer Policy Committee (COPOLCO) in London in late May. The meeting featured sessions of the COPOLCO Working Groups: a joint event with BSI on “Protecting Consumers in the Age of AI” and the COPOLCO plenary annual meeting.
President Dermott Jewell represented ANEC in the plenary meeting. In a common session with other Liaison Organizations to COPOLCO, he spoke on the commonalities and disparities between ANEC and COPOLCO and how these should be factored into a more strategic discussion.
The week also saw a meeting between the COPOLCO leadership – led by Chair Eunsook Moon – and ANEC, represented by the President, Director-General Stephen Russell, and Deputy Director-General Chiara Giovannini.
