Inviting APMP Young Metrologists to the BIPM Vision 2050+ Questionnaire

Dear Young Metrologists of APMP,

As the next generation for metrology community, it is important that we have a voice in shaping the future of metrology. We are inviting you to participate in a foresighting exercise to seek your vision and opinion on how metrology will look like in the future. This is to help us to identify emerging trends and technologies, and to anticipate new challenges and opportunities.

We have developed a questionnaire to get your initial ideas on the vision for metrology in 2050+. We hope that you will use this questionnaire to freely express your views on various aspects of metrology in the future and to creatively describe how you think metrology will be like come 2050 and beyond. We encourage you to:

·         Use your knowledge and expertise to identify emerging trends and technologies that could impact metrology in 2050+.

·         Consider the societal, economic and environmental factors that may drive these changes and how they may influence the future of metrology.

·         Collaborate with you colleagues, exchange ideas and explore different scenarios.

Your visionary ideas will be gathered and will be collectively discussed and then will be presented at the 150th anniversary of the signing of the Metre Convention on 20 May 2025. The results of this exercise will also complement the CIPM Strategy 2030+.

As young metrologists, your voice and contributions to this project are of vital importance to shape the future of metrology. Please take this opportunity to engage with your peers, share your knowledge and experience. With your support, hopefully we can create a collective vision by bringing together the different views of young metrologists’ that are inclusive, innovative and sustainable.

Thank you very much for your commitment.
