CEN and CENELEC’s response to the Single Market Strategy
CEN and CENELEC have long supported the Single Market, with standardization being key to its success for over thirty years. While we share the view that the Single Market and the European Standardization System must evolve to meet the increasingly complex challenges posed by emerging technologies and faster innovation cycles, the Strategy issued today by the European Commission rightly recognizes standards as the cornerstone of the Single Market, providing legal certainty to business, facilitating access to new technologies, and boosting competitiveness.
