U.S. Celebration of World Standards Day 2023
As a collaboratively hosted event for the standardization community, the U.S. Celebration of World Standards Day (WSD) has separate registration from ANSI’s WSW events above.
The 2023 U.S. Celebration of WSD will have a new and engaging format this year: In place of a formal dinner, attendees will enjoy an evening of networking, interaction, and conversation with a lengthened reception featuring exhibitors from across the U.S. standardization community and a variety of food and drink options. Amid the festivities, a program highlighting the theme “A Shared Vision for a Better World” will honor the 2023 recipient of the Ronald Brown Standards Leadership Award—astronaut Michael López-Alegría—and the winner of the WSD Paper Competition.
The event is hosted by a committee of standardization community partners—co-chaired by ANSI and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). ASTM International is serving as the 2023 administrating organization.
WSD sponsorship/registration is open via register.ansi.org/2023wsd.
