NATO Chief Scientist welcomes the new Organization

MGen Albert Husniaux, NATO Chief ScientistDear All,

We would like to welcome you to your new home base, the Science and Technology Organisation (STO).

On 1 July the STO stood up, with the new NATO Chief Scientist providing unified S&T leadership; merging the forces, the skills and the expertise of the NATO Undersea Research Centre and the Research and Technology Organisation; and creating the Office of the NATO Chief Scientist in NATO Headquarters.

We also would like to thank you for all the hard work you have performed, getting the S&T community to where it is today: known for excellence and better positioned than ever to make a difference and to contribute to the Security and Defence of the Alliance.

Dr René LaRose, Director, Collaboration Support OfficeThe S&T Reform is indeed much more than a reform of structures. The reform of the structural element is a means to ensure that Science and Technology is reinforced as a cornerstone of the Security and Defence of the Alliance. To some of us this reform also means a major reform of the way we will work in the future.

Expectations are high, the Nations having tasked us very clearly to continue to deliver excellence, while paying particular attention to: the coordination of the various S&T programmes, the involvement of our customers, the visibility the accessibility and the exploitation of our work, the provision of knowledge and advice to support decision making, the best use of resources and to overall governance.

Dr Dirk Tielburger, Director, Centre for Maritime Research and ExperimentationThere are many challenges we face and the road is long, with many a winding turn. We know that you are determined and capable, and that we can count on all of you to succeed. Together we can and we will make a difference.

We also would like to associate our stakeholders with our endeavours. They have been our valued partners and we are committed to do the utmost to have our collaboration blossom even more, joining forces to the benefit of the Alliance and its Nations in a true “hand-shake” mode.

We are proud to be the first leadership of this new organisation and we are very much aware of the responsibilities we face. You can count on our dedication.

Looking forward to working with you,

Albert Husniaux (MGen BE AF)

Our Organization

NATO Science and Technology OrganizationThe Science and Technology Organization (STO) is a NATO subsidiary body having the same legal status than the NATO itself, and created within the framework of the North Atlantic Treaty signed in Washington in 1949. It has been established with a view to meeting to the best advantage the collective needs of NATO, NATO Nations and partner Nations in the fields of Science and Technology. The STO is operated under the authority of the North Atlantic Council which has delegated the operations of the STO to a Board of Directors (the S&T Board – STB) comprising the NATO Nations S&T managers. The STB is chaired by the NATO Chief Scientist who is a high level recognized S&T leader of a NATO Nation, being permanently assigned to the NATO headquarters in Brussels and also serving as the senior scientific advisor to the NATO leadership.
