Cen-Cenelec and EURAMET are now organising direct contacts between the relevant experts to ensure discussions for the preparation of Potential Research Topics for 2017.

If you have any questions, please contact EURAMET's Standardisation Support & Facilitator Eveline Domini.

CEN-CENELEC and EURAMET announce the 3rd STAIR EMPIR Meeting to be held on 15 December 2016 in Brussels.

In 2017, the European Metrology Programme for Research and Innovation (EMPIR), will launch a call for pre- and co-normative research projects. Participants at the 3rd STAIR EMPIR meeting, to be held at CEN-CENELEC, are invited to present and discuss ideas for the call and explore related opportunities for cooperation between the standardisation and metrology communities. 

EURAMET Task Groups will present their technical expertise in previous metrology research projects and their ideas for the call. Standardisation groups will also present the normative research needs for traceable measurements that are necessary to provide the scientific and technical basis for the development of their standards. Round table discussions and face to face meetings will then follow, giving the opportunity for standardisers and EURAMET representatives to discuss potential research topics that address the standardisation research needs using the expertise of metrology institutes. 

All interested parties from standardisation and metrology communities are welcome to attend.
