CEN-CENELEC/JTC 22 ‘Quantum Technologies’ have published their first ever deliverable in the form of a Technical Report (TR). The document covers the universal gate-based quantum-computing model, also known as a digital or circuit quantum-computing model, on multiple physical systems. TR 18202:2025 slices down the overall complexity of quantum computing into two main groups of layers, summarizing theoretical and practical approaches with state-of-the-art definition.
CEN and CENELEC confirm their full commitment to delivering comprehensive, inclusive, and high-quality European Standards in support of the Artificial Intelligence Act (AIA).
Young professionals bring new energy, ideas, and skills to European standardization. As our society undergoes rapid transformations, their contributions are key to ensuring that standards remain relevant, forward-looking, and impactful.

On World Standards Day 2025, CEN, CENELEC, EA, EURAMET, EUROLAB, PROSAFE and WELMEC come together to celebrate the vital role of partnerships in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This year’s theme, "Partnerships for the Goals" (SDG 17), highlights how collaboration is the key driver for progress across all other goals.
A new CEN Workshop is being planned as part of the activities of the EU project 'BIOUPTAKE'. The aim of this project is to ensure a sustainable uptake of bioplastic composites in the European manufacturing industry.
The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to contribute to the European Fare Information Profile project, a major initiative that will shape the future of multimodal ticketing and fare information across Europe.
The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to participate in the EUDIT project, a new initiative to develop a European Standard (EN) for digital interfaces (APIs) that will transform how transport tickets are distributed across Europe.
The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to contribute to the Cyclinfra project, an initiative to improve the exchange and re-use of digital, machine-readable cycling network data across Europe. The project aims to make cycling more attractive and accessible by ensuring that accurate geographic data on cycling infrastructure is available, interoperable, and easy to integrate into modern mobility services.
The European Commission, through the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), is funding experts to join the BT4PT project, a strategic initiative to create a European Standard (EN) for barcode ticketing that will enable seamless multimodal and multi-operator travel across Europe.
