technical standards you could also end up with a scattered landscape of different technical standards without a proper understanding of efficiency gains, without governance or resilience. There will be no consistency in how the different elements work together, things would fail and that would lead to a lack of trust. “It’s also vital that standards are
created based on a multi-stakeholder approach and not built around one technology. In that way, the whole market can reap the benefits.” Sahar welcomes the references to standards in the government’s response to the CPI consultation and sees this as part of a wider understanding of the important role that consensus-based standards play in supporting innovation. “It was really good to see that
there is a clear recognition in the CPI response of standards to enable integration, interoperability and ease of collaboration. More broadly, we’ve also been seeing clearer messaging that standards are fundamental to encouraging innovation, and this is reflected in government reports. For example, the UK’s recently published Science and Technology Framework recognizes the value

“There is a clear recognition in the CPI response of standards to enable integration, interoperability and ease of collaboration. We’ve also been seeing clearer messaging that standards are fundamental to encouraging innovation”
in championing the global technical standards ecosystem that underpins international governance of critical technologies.”
Sahar also points to the AI Standards Hub and the Digital Twin
Hub (see pop-up p10) as “brilliant examples” of the UK trying to create a national asset that can benefit UK businesses going forward. “The AI Standards Hub creates a forum to bring together start-ups,
