Impact on SMEs (8th Open Call)
Digital and ICT Professional skills performance play a vital role for the European economy and society, and dedicated EU reference standards are essential. SME’s form the backbone of the economy in Europe, with almost two-thirds of employees in the EU working for an SME. SMEs often struggle with digital transformation and the optimal use of AI due to limited resources. Clear references and frameworks for skills and roles requirements for the digital and AI domain can be an essential aid for small and medium-sized enterprises when planning, recruiting and developing staff. The standards also provide the common language needed to interact with education providers and policy makers to understand and raise awareness on SME specific skills needs dealing with AI and digital more in general as well as with other specific technologies, and to find from there efficient and effective ways to get the right staff.

Description of Activities

My fellowship contributes to analysing the ICT (IoT) Standards landscape in order to find gaps to be filled by future standardisation work and also to identify existing standards, which manufacturers and service providers of connected products or related services may apply in order for their products being compliant to the new Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 (European Data Act).

Open Call Topics
Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
The Data Act applies to the group of holders of data (not only but also SMEs) acting on the European market irrespective of the place of establishment of those manufacturers and providers.
Impact on society (4th Open Call)
Since the addressed existing or to be developed standards enable particularly semantic interoperability across the IoT, they also provide cross domain and cross-vendor IoT semantic interoperability for exchanging data with common understanding of its meaning. This will become increasingly important as greater quantities of data are generated and shared across the IoT. It opens new market opportunities in the domains of e.g. Healthcare, Smart Grid, Smart Metering, Intelligent Transport Systems, Industrial Automated Systems, and Smart Cities, which depend on collecting and processing data. With that, it directly supports the strong European goal of the “digital single market”.

Annegrit Seyerlein-Klug

Description of Activities

Annegrit's priority is the Convenorship of CEN CENELEC JTC21 WG 5,  the organisation and project support to work on the AI Act standardisation request for Cybersecurity. This includes a close collaboration with other groups within JTC 21, JTC 13, ISO IEC SC 42 and SC 27 to collect all information of existing and work under development. The main challenge is that JTC 21 and also our WG5 has a diverse structure of experts and knowledge, which makes the work, the effort and efficiency very difficult. In this case, the challenge in addition is the collaboration with other existing standardisation groups within JTC 21 as well as with JTC 13 for Cyber Resilience Act, with ETSI and their view, with ISO IEC SC 27 and SC 42.

Fellow's country
Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
Contributing activity for a new work item NWIP within CEN CENELEC JTC 21 WG5 “Artificial Intelligence - Cybersecurity specifications for AI systems” and developing the standard on the basis of the gap report.
Impact on SMEs (7th Open Call)
A lot of European SME and/or European societies will be affected in the one or other way from AI-systems in the future in all areas of our living environment, from AI in medical devices, in personal equipment over autonomous driving until general purpose AI systems like chat gpt or Metaverse platforms. The challenge is to align the standards with the regulation but also with the needs of SME and European values. For this reason, the AI Act asked for standards, which CEN/CENELEC is developing.
Impact on SMEs (9th Open Call)
European SMEs , which are providing risk or high risk AI systems in the European market are effected by the AI Act and in that case also from the standard I work for and contribute: Cybersecurity Specifications for AI- Systems.
Impact on society (4th Open Call)
Cybersecurity is elementary for every digital asset and very important also for AI-Systems as a digital asset to be secure, safe, healthy and respecting fundamental rights.
Impact on society (7th Open Call)
The proposed activity aims to answer the official EU standardization request for the EU AI Act and specifically No. 8 Cybersecurity. Thrustworthy Metaverse solutions are based on trustworthy AI solutions. Trust and cybersecurity of AI and Metaverse can be ensured with well developed standards from cybersecurity and AI experts with business background. In case of the European Union harmonized standards as presumption of conformity to the EU Regulation are requested, in this case the request is for the AI Act and CRA as an essential fundament for a trustworthy and secure web 4.0 with virtual world and Metaverse with the specific EU focus on safety, fundamental rights, health and data protection.
Impact on society (9th Open Call)
The AI Act has the goal to avoid or mitigate negative impact on people and society regarding Fundamental Rights, Health and Safety. All harmonized standards for the AI Act support this goal and request of the AI Act including the standard for Cybersecurity specifications for AI Systems.

Description of Activities

Through this fellowship project, I am directly pursuing the development, approval, and publication of the following standards: ISO 22739:2024 ‘Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies – Vocabulary’, ISO/TR 24332  ‘Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology in relation to authoritative records, records systems, and records management’ and ISO/NP 24982 ‘Digital currencies – Vocabulary’.

DLT can facilitate and enhance a wide variety of commercial activities among European businesses and feature prominently in active development of European regulations, including but not limited to eIDAS and EBSI.
Impact on society (2nd Open Call)
Distributed ledger technology offers an opportunity to promote better management of data within public services, including for accounting and records management, as well as for electronic payments, particularly in the context of digital currencies, which represent an opportunity for central banks and financial regulators to provide a public payment mechanism that citizen-consumers can use independently of potentially exclusive custodial relationships.

Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
Despite the fact that 95% of industries are composed of SMEs, there is a significant underrepresentation of this organisation's viewpoint on standards development. I am the liaison officer of the Small Business Standards in all the TCs at ISO. I contribute to giving a voice to European SMEs in standardisation at the European and international levels. In addition, to provide comments in the meetings I promote the use of the compatibility test of the SBS and collaborate in the workshops to facilitate the mutual understanding among the industry and the SDOs.
Impact on society (4th Open Call)
These standardisation efforts support the achievement of the objectives of the Green Deal and the SDGs, as well as the political objectives of the European Commission and support for the New European Standardization Strategy. As a convenor position of a key working group at the ISO level, I am able to promote the European values in standards development. In addition, this action promotes the improvement in the efficiency of public services with the use of reliable applications and technologies that contribute to sustainable development.

Impact on SMEs (6th Open Call)
The work of the IETF ROLL WG significantly impacts European SMEs by developing internationally recognised open standards, such as RPL. RPL presents multiple open-source implementations has been tested through extensive simulations and continuous evaluations. Also, RPL meets all their required capabilities, such as energy-efficient mechanisms, which are pivotal for sustainable growth.
Moreover, the continuous enhancements by the ROLL WG are vital for the evolution and adaptation of new use cases pertinent to the European context. These improvements ensure robust interoperability and adherence to security standards, both critical for SMEs operating in the dynamic European market. This commitment to excellence and relevance is applied in the standard reviews carried out within the IETF Directorates, such as IoT, Routing, and General-Area sectors. Such endeavours underscore our dedication to supporting European SMEs' technological advancement and operational efficiency.
