## Description

The International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) is the global organization founded by the Metre Convention in 1875. It serves as the hub for Member States to collaborate on matters concerning measurement science and standards. The BIPM is also known as the custodian of the International System of Units (SI) and the international reference time scale (UTC). Through its impartial status, the BIPM aims to enhance the global comparability of measurements for scientific exploration, industrial production, trade, and environmental sustainability. Their work spans various technical areas like electrical metrology, radiation dosimetry, and time metrology. Additionally, the BIPM offers publications, events, and online resources to support the metrology community worldwide. Joining forces with National Metrology Institutes and Regional Metrology Organizations, the BIPM strives to foster innovation and ensure measurement accuracy for diverse applications.
