SEM ETSI’s vision ETSI is the preferred organisation for the ICT industry and other stakeholders, to develop standards and specifications for the global market, and to support regional initiatives as appropriate
SEM ETSI is not … a REGULATORY body, but… we provide technical specifications to support regulation a CERTIFICATION body, but… we provide specifications and other tools to assist certification a FREQUENCY ALLOCATION body, but… we collect, co-ordinate and contribute frequency requirements for the ICT community part of the European Commission, nor part of CEPT, but… we work closely with these and many other organisations

SEM ETSI – a global standards body ! ETSI was established as a European body and retains European responsibilities. But… …many of ETSI’s Members are global players… …so ETSI seeks to have its standards adopted worldwide Over 100 of ETSI’s Members (about 20% of the total) have no established operations in Europe Many of the other 80% are headquartered outside Europe
