CEN/CLC Guide 39:2022

The role of standards in support of Technology Transfer

The main target audience of this Guide are the researchers and providers of new technologies who want to see
their research outcome or new technology taken up by the market as well as innovators, entrepreneurs and startups who want their innovation to enter the market, and are interested to know whether and how standardization
can help them to meet their objective.
The use of standardization in support of the uptake of an innovation by the market consists of:
• the application of existing standards on which the innovative product/service relies;
• contributions to and participation in the standardization process, to ensure the standards accommodate
the innovative product/service

Vloga standardov v podporo prenosu tehnologije

Glavna ciljna skupina tega vodila so raziskovalci in ponudniki novih tehnologij, ki si prizadevajo, da bi bil rezultat njihove raziskave oziroma nova tehnologija sprejeta tako na trgu kot s strani inovatorjev, podjetnikov in zagonskih podjetij, ki želijo s svojo inovacijo prodreti na trg, ter jih zanima, ali jim standardizacija lahko pomaga doseči njihov cilj in na kakšen način. Uporaba standardizacije v podporo sprejetja inovacij na trgu vključuje: • uporabo obstoječih standardov, na katerih temelji inovativni izdelek/storitev; • prispevanje k postopku standardizacije in sodelovanje v njem, s čimer se zagotovi, da standardi ustrezajo inovativnemu izdelku/storitvi.

European foreword

This document (CEN-CENELEC Guide 39:2022) has been prepared by CEN-CENELEC BT WG 3
‘STAndardization, Innovation and Research (STAIR)’.
It is intended for use by the CEN and CENELEC Members in their contacts with Research and Innovation
stakeholders.
Standardization and innovation are often presented by arguing that standardization can block innovation. This
guide helps to counter this argument by highlighting the role of standards in promoting innovation in the market
place.
NOTE Where the expression CEN-CENELEC appears it refers to CEN and CENELEC jointly.
