24th EURAS Annual Standardisation Conference
- Standards for a Bio-Based Economy -
13 –-15 June 2019
Rome, Italy
Organised by
The European Academy for Standardisation (EURAS)
Unitelma Sapienza – Bioeconomy in Transition Research Group (BiT-RG)

Chair of Innovation Economics – Technische Universität Berlin

Governments and companies across Europe and worldwide are confronted with depletion of natural resources due to, among others, their unsustainable use, increased global competitiveness, increasing population, and other challenging environmental and economic issues. Promoting the sustainable growth of dynamic bio-economy sectors will contribute to an innovative, resource efficient and competitive society in transition from a fossil fuel-based society to a bio-based one. Bio-based products represent a great opportunity to reconcile sustainable long-term growth with environmental protection through the prudent use of renewable resources for industrial purposes. However, managing those resources in a sustainable manner implies facing major challenges. In this context, sustainability schemes and standards play a key role in ensuring a clear and evidence-based view of environmental, economic and social impacts. Sustainability assessment schemes are crucial for the development, implementation and management of effective regulatory frameworks incorporating the principle of the circular economy, with a focus on end-of-life and after use analysis.
EURAS 2019 solicits papers on the above theme. However, papers on other standardisation topics will also be considered. Sample topics include:
- Standards for sustainability.
- Green standards and certificates.
- Standards and regulation for bio-based products.
- Standardisation and Europe's research and innovation agenda.
- Standards as policy tools.
- National or international policy and standardisation.
- Standardisation of converging technologies.
- Smart standardisation.
- Standardisation roadmaps.
- Standardisation and Open Source.
- Standards and barriers to trade.
- Standards as a driver for innovation.
- Relation between standardisation and legislation.
- Standardisation and quality infrastructure.
- Legal aspects of standardisation.
- Standards and knowledge transfer.
- Standardisation and entrepreneurship.
- The impacts of standards and standardisation.
- Quality of standards.
- Role of industry and their associations in standardisation.
- Standardisation via industry consortia.
- History of standardisation.
- Standardisation processes.
- Standards and digitalization.
Full papers (up to 30 double spaced pages; rtf. .doc or .docx format) should be submitted to:
Kai Jakobs at Kai.Jakobs@cs.rwth-aachen.de.
