Impact on SMEs (2nd Open Call)
It is particularly important that European SMEs find DPPs a way to communicate the sustainability advantages of their products better and that producing a DPP, and digitalising product information becomes an advantage and not an additional obstacle to SMEs. One of the advantages of ITU and ETSI over other standards development organisations is that these standards will be free and more accessible for SMEs.

Impact on society:

Impact on society (2nd Open Call)

Value of Research

Within my WG, we address the gap in the link between digitisation and environmental sustainability, and particularly of products and services. Specifically, digital devices and related elements ranging from materials to e-waste are a significant part of our environmental problem.
