About Us
Who we are
Bluetooth® is more than your average technology standard, and the Bluetooth SIG is more than your average standards development organization.
Our vision
Creating a better world through connection
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) is the international standards development organization responsible for Bluetooth® technology. Our belief in the transformative power of connection is what inspires us every day. Because connection can create a better world for us all.

Our values
We work toward the greater good
We believe connection has the power to unlock new possibilities for people, businesses, and industries. That’s why we bring together organizations from across the globe—even those with competing interests—to realize the fundamental need to connect. Because when we do, we turn possibility into progress, connection into something greater, and the world into a better place.
We commit to the power of collaboration
Our strength lies in our community. By uniting diverse skills and experiences that span continents and culture and fostering an open and trusting environment, we provide a forum where all can participate, and the best ideas emerge—even when it’s difficult.
We explore without limits
Innovation never stands still, and neither do we. We never settle. We relentlessly pursue big ideas that have the power to drive change, and we operate in constant pursuit of what’s next — evolving standards, opening doors to new applications and broader use cases, and helping create a world that is healthier, smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable.
