The work at OSTERA is organized into Working Groups and collections of Working Groups can be organized into Centers of Excellence. This is where innovation becomes a standard and focused collaboration drives global impact.

Working Groups

Working Groups are at the heart of the OSTERA process. They unite experts and organizations around shared goals and objectives, accelerating progress from idea to industry-ready standard to implementation and adoption. These communities focus on solving real-world challenges through open collaboration.

Members of OSTERA can propose new Working Groups. Approved groups operate under OSTERA’s IPR policy and governance framework.

Join a Working Group

Each Working Group is open to Members and invited experts, following clear, transparent, and agile development processes.

In Working Groups, participants share ideas, ideas are collaborated on, and ideas become deliverables such as specifications, white papers, reference implementations, technological solutions, and standards.

Centers of Excellence

Each Center of Excellence unites multiple Working Groups under a shared mission. This ensures focus, depth, cross group collaboration, faster results, and cross-industry impact.

Centers help bridge research, engineering, implementation, and standards development. They can define best practices, develops open standards, and coordinate with global stakeholders to drive interoperability and trust.
