ITU-T Membership and Services

connect-l.gifA message from our Director, Malcolm Johnson:
 
"ITU-T is justly proud to be the world’s leading developer of standards for information and communication technologies (ICT). We are unique among standards bodies in that as well as the private sector members that drive much of our work, governments from around the world also participate.

Membership allows for unparalleled networking opportunities with the best talent in the industry - representatives of over 700 private sector entities - as well as 193 governments and their regulators. 
Participation in the ITU standards process gives direct influence over the technological forces that are shaping the ICT industry. Taking part will help to ensure that your products are safe, reliable and compatible on a global scale."

ITU-T’s secretariat will be happy to answer any of your questions on how we can meet your needs. We look forward to hearing from you.
