INTRODUCTION

The European Procurement Forum is a not for profit organization 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 City. One of our core activities is to organize an annual seminar to offer European companies the opportunity to offer their services to the UN-Procurement division. Our next seminar for companies will be the 9th Annual EUPF Seminar from April 23-25.

9th Annual EUPF Seminar
We encourage companies (and representatives from organizations who wish to engage in UN tenders directly) to register for our annual EU UN-Procurement Seminar that will be held in April 2012. Registration for the 9th Annual Seminar will open on the 16th of January 2012 at 15.00 hrs CET sharp. Please register timely, as we only have capacity for 150 companies.

In 2010 the overall procurement volume of UN-Organizations increased to $14.5 billion, from $9.4 in 2006. The annual increase of the procurement volume is attributable to most UN-Organizations experiencing a boost in overall procurement. This offers opportunities for the private sector. However, companies do not always reach their full potential within the UN-Market due to a variety of factors, such as unfamiliarity with the UN-System and its opportunities, pitfalls, and lack of personal networks.

A wide range of workshops will be offered in order to enhance the participant's knowledge about UN-Procurement. The workshops will also focus on practical tips for dealing successfully with UN-Procurement.

In general UN-Procurement focuses but is not limited to a selection of the following industries/fields.

Engineering & Construction Services
Security Goods & Services
IT Services & Telecommunications
Emergency Related Goods
Logistics & Transportation
Consultancy
Environmental Technologies

Due to ongoing renovations at the UN-Headquarters the main seminar will take place at the Bohemian National Hall on the Upper East Side in New York City.
