In this paper, through my international standardization activities, some suggestions how to build a bridge between R&D and Standardizations and to make effective use of international standardization organizations are provided. I have been serving to ITU and IEC as four kinds of International Standardization experts / management members. In ITU, I was delegated to its Working Parties (WPs) by the Member State of Japan at first, then become a ITU-R WP 6M (interactivity and multimedia broadcasting) Vice Chairman. In IEC, I was the Secretary of Technical Committee 100 (TC 100: audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment) Secretary and finally to be the IEC Standardization Management Board (SMB) member representing Japanese National Committee. According to my experience, each stage assigns me its management powers and specific duties. How to use these functions are what I would like to provide in this paper, i.e., how to bring your R&D outputs to International Standardization activities.
