World Time Standardization Conference

The World Time Standardization Conference was an international gathering aimed at coordinating and standardizing timekeeping across the globe. Its goal was to establish a uniform system for measuring and converting time to facilitate global communication, transportation, and commerce. The conference helped define time zones and the use of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which now serves as the global reference for time. By creating consistent standards, the conference improved synchronization worldwide, making it easier for countries and industries to coordinate activities and reduce confusion caused by different local times.
