EUROPEAN PROCUREMENT FORUM
|
The European Procurement Forum (EUPF) is an organization with a nonprofit objective, whose purpose is to facilitate
activities that promote UN-Procurement from EU-companies. EUPF has been founded by the EU-trade
representatives to the United Nations Offices in New York.
These EU trade representatives have met since 1996 to promote UN-procurement from EU-companies.
Promotional activities have included:
- Annual EU UN-procurement reception for UN-buyers and EU-company representatives on the
occasion of International Aid & Trade New York, a global trade fair for companies interested in
procurement for peacekeeping missions and development projects.
- Plenary meetings to exchange market information and to invite management from UN procurement
sections for periodic presentations about opportunities in this annual US$13.6 billion
dollar market.
- Provide assistance to the EU government delegates in the UN's 5th committee with practical
information and advice regarding the meetings on UN-procurement reform.
