Empowering SMEs: SBS Appoints Record Number of Experts to Shape European Standards
Small Business Standards (SBS) plays a crucial role in ensuring that the voices of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are heard in the development of European and international standards. By directly involving SME experts in technical committees, SBS empowers businesses to actively shape the rules that govern their industries.
This year, SBS achieved a significant milestone by appointing a record number of 79 experts to represent SME interests across various standardisation committees. This strategic move strengthens SBS’s influence and ensures that the unique needs and perspectives of SMEs are effectively integrated into the standards development process.
Through the active participation of these expert representatives, SBS is now present in numerous technical committees, subcommittees, and working groups. This widespread involvement enables SBS to contribute significantly to the development of standards in a diverse range of sectors critical for SMEs.
SBS’s commitment to empowering SME voices in the standardisation process is crucial for ensuring a level playing field and fostering a sustainable business environment for all.
