A better way to a sustainable future
Measurements are behind many of the daily actions that we take for granted, like buying food, filling our vehicle’s gas tank, switching the lights on at home, or taking medicine.
Accurate measurements ensure that we get the right amount of food, fuel, and energy, and that our medication is safe. They ensure communities can function well and provide the foundations for safer and more sustainable businesses and societies.
Whether building a sustainable future, supporting the circular economy or developing the next generation of technology, our purpose is to help make a safer and less uncertain world.
The rise of AI and the need for accurate data
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to generate vast amounts of data, questions arise about its accuracy. As a result, concerns have been raised about the reliability of AI-generated data, and whether it is truly representative of reality.
It is essential to continue exploring the accuracy of AI-generated data, and to openly discuss any limitations and biases that may exist.

Ensuring sustainable lifestyles for 8 billion people
Earth is now home to more than eight billion people. Thanks to reduced childhood mortality, increased life expectancies and improved healthcare, the global population has almost tripled since the 1950s. At its current rate, we will hit 10 billion people by 2050. Is this milestone in human development a cause for alarm or a chance to redress and recalibrate global inequity in resources? How will we care for the growing global population?
