International board positions

Danish Standards works closely together with international and European standardization organizations and holds several board positions on the governing bodies.

Danish Standards plays an active role in the development of ETSI to meet demands from the European Commission for the organization's status as a European standardization organization which is authorized to develop harmonised standards. 
 
In addition, Danish Standards holds two important directorships in the two largest international standardization organizations, ISO and IEC. For the past three years, Danish Standards has been a member of ISO Council, which is ISO’s core governance body. In 2023, Danish Standards was voted into ISO's technical board (TMB), which is responsible for the overall management of the technical committee structure throughout ISO, including approval of new technical committees. The period runs from 2024 through 2026. 

In 2023, Danish Standards also became a member of the IEC Business Advisory Committee, which is a central advisory body and responsible for the coordination of financial planning, commercial policies and organisational (IT) infrastructure. This period also runs from 2024 through 2026. 

Moreover, Danish Standards is a member of the technical boards of CEN and CENELEC.
