Jean-Philippe Faure acts as a primary driver, technical architect, and working group chair across several major international standardization initiatives, successfully bridging technical innovation with global regulatory frameworks.

Trustworthiness of Artificial Intelligence (Ongoing)

1. • Initiator of Framework Convergence: Led the strategic alignment between IEEE, Positive AI, IRT SystemX (Confiance.ai), and VDE. As Technical Chair (2022–2025), he managed the development of the Joint Draft Specification V2.0 for the Assessment of the Trustworthiness of AI Systems, aligning AI evaluation with frameworks like the EU AI Act.

   • Global Working Group Chair: Established and currently leads the international standardization effort as the Founding Chair of the IEEE 8000 Working Group (Since 2025), developing IEEE P8000.1 - Standard for a Method to Assess the Trustworthiness of Artificial Intelligence Systems.

Child Safety Online & European Regulation (DSA)

1. • Adapting Global Standards for Europe: As the Chair of the CEN-CENELEC Workshop (2022–2023), he led the process to adapt the IEEE 2089-2021 standard for the European market, resulting in CWA 18016 - Age Appropriate Digital Services Framework - to define digital services tailored to children.

   • Direct Regulatory Impact on the EU DSA: This adapted framework is officially integrated as a reference into the Guidelines on the protection of minors under the the EU Digital Services Act (DSA) under Article 28(4) published by the European Commission, helping online platforms design services that align with the safety, privacy, and security needs of minors.

Internet of Things (IoT) & Smart Metering

1. • LPWAN Adaptation Layer: Led the technical description and architecture required to run the M-Bus protocol over Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN).

   • Industrial Standardization: This development was adopted as the European utility standard under the EN 13757-8 series, establishing the interoperability framework for smart metering.

Broadband Powerline Communications (BPL)

1. • Architect of the IEEE 1901 Standard on BPL MAC and PHY layers: As Founding Chair of the IEEE 1901 Working Group (Since 2005), he managed the development of IEEE Std 1901-2020, coordinating 350 experts from 90+ companies globally to deliver the 1,622-page standard.

   • Resolving EMC Constraints: Served as Founding Convenor of the IEC CISPR/I PLT Project Team (2005–2010) to address international electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) challenges, leading directly to the Harmonized European Standard EN 50561-1 in 2013.

   • Technical Alliance Leadership: Serves as Chair of the Nessum Alliance Technical Working Group (Since 2010) and was a key Member of the HomePlug Alliance Technical Evaluation Group (2004) for the selection of the HomePlug AV technology.

High-Level Institutional Leadership (IEEE)

1. • IEEE-SA Standards Board (Chair, 2016–2018): Oversaw the development, revision, and approval processes of the entire IEEE standards portfolio, governing an ecosystem of 20,000+ developers, 650+ standards under development, and 1,250+ active standards.

   • IEEE-SA Board of Governors (Member, 2016–2020): Served on the governing body directing the IEEE Standards Association, participating in global policy formulation, financial oversight, and strategic planning across IEEE's technical fields.

Jean-Philippe Faure has received the IEEE-SA Standards Medallion in 2014.

The Standards Medallion is awarded for major contributions to the development of standards. Examples include but are not limited to the following:

• Leadership in standardization of new technologies

• Assuring achievement of standards development goals

• Identifying opportunities to better serve the needs of standards users

• Other contributions viewed as deserving of such recognition
