<p>The team of the BRIDGIT2 project has collected compelling evidence that standardization facilitates the market uptake of outcomes from H2020 and earlier framework programs and seeks for the research and innovation community to fully engage with standardization. It builds on the BRIDGIT project, which promoted the interaction between research and standardization and strengthened the capabilities of members of standardization bodies to become partners in research and innovation projects.</p><p>This paper is included in the program of <a href="https://digilience.org">DIGILIENCE 2019</a> and will be published in the post-conference volume.</p>
