PSCE becomes ETSI’s member

PSCE is pleased to inform that its September application for ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) membership was accepted. In order to follow a more certified procedure, ETSI will soon send a welcome letter confirming PSCE membership.

As first steps, ETSI invited PSCE to its 74th General Assembly meeting at ETSI Headquarters in Valbonne, France.
