Green WiFi - case study in standardisation and regulation
2025-09-20 , Pupin

This talk is a modified version of a talk originally given at the ULB Summer School of Technology in Brussels. It will cover the route from environmental regulations at the EU level into technical standards at IEEE 802.11. Leveraging fascinating anecdotes from the regulatory and corporate worlds it will make the case that well-regulated markets are still our best hope for solving pressing society problems.


This talk builds extensively on my experience as standards strategist and architect at Sky Group and Comcast. Some raw data can be found on my website: amelia.andersdotter.cc/stuff.html - the talk is also already scheduled for Bornhack, a Danish hacker gathering in July.

Amelia has worked for a long time on various regulatory aspects of technology and the internet. She's a committed European.
