Stakeholders from government, industry, and the standards community are invited to mark their calendars for the 2026 U.S.-Korea Standards Forum, taking place on Friday, July 31, 2026, at the Grand Hyatt Denver in Denver, CO. The Forum will be co-located with the ANSI Innovation Summit, scheduled for July 28–30, providing added opportunities for engagement and cross-cutting dialogue.
Co-hosted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS), this annual forum establishes a valuable platform for leaders and subject-matter experts from both countries to enhance mutual understanding, exchange expertise and best practices, and develop future cooperation, especially in critical and emerging technologies.
Last year, more than 60 representatives from the U.S. and Korean public and private sectors convened in Seoul, Korea, to advance dialogue on standards collaboration across a broad range of industries. Now entering its sixth year, the Forum continues to build on this strong momentum, featuring high-level dialogues and expert panels focused on priority areas including artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, future mobility, and biotechnology.
Stakeholders interested in speaking or contributing to the program are encouraged to reach out to Laiyin Yuan ([email protected]) or Joseph Conrad ([email protected]) to engage early in the planning process.
Additional details on the agenda and registration will be shared in the coming months. Save the date and plan to join us in Denver this July for an impactful dialogue shaping the future of international standards cooperation!
