ISO International Standards ensure that products and services are safe, reliable and of good quality. For business, they are strategic tools that reduce costs by minimizing waste and errors and increasing productivity. They help companies to access new markets, level the playing field for developing countries and facilitate free and fair global trade.
Our ISOfocus magazine, the publication providing all of the latest news and features from the world of International Standards, is now sporting a brand new design.
The theme of this "launch" issue is therefore extremely fitting: positive change. It reflects our move to become a bigger, bolder magazine. And what better time to do this than in the 100th issue of ISOfocus!
The magazine is still available through subscription, and in digital format free of charge, so you can enjoy it on your computer, laptop, tablet, and on your mobile device.
Current issuePublished in English and French, six times per year, ISOfocus is your gateway to International Standards. Whether a multinational enterprise faced with major decisions or a small business looking for ideas, ISOfocus seeks to provide both the kind of overviews that strategic planners need and the little details that can make a big difference.
You will find international topics covering everything from IT and transport to personal stories and everything in between. Our goal is to bring you the highest-quality information and most up-to-date and internationally relevant material on standards in each issue.
