Standardization organizations play a major role in the telecommunications industry to guarantee interoperability between vendors and allow for a common ground where all players can voice their opinion regarding the direction the industry should follow. In this paper we review the current activities in some of the most relevant standardization bodies in the area of communication networks: 3GPP, IEEE 802.11, BBF, IETF, ONF, ETSI ISG NFV, oneM2M and ETSI TC ITS. Major innovations being developed in these bodies are summarized describing the most disruptive directions taken and expected to have a remarkable impact in future networks. Finally, some trends common among different bodies are identified covering different dimensions: i) core technology enhancements, ii) inter-organizations cooperation for convergence, iii) consideration of raising disruptive technical concepts, and iv) expanding into emerging use cases aiming at an increase of future market size.
