In order to be eligible for 1-on-1 meetings with UN Organizations you need to be registered before April 8th, 2022.
If you were not interested in 1-on-1 meetings, you could register until April 22nd, 2022.
When you register for the 18th EU-UN Procurement Seminar, you could select the UN organizations you are interested in having meetings with. Then those UN organizations would review your company profile (make sure you have a strong profile!) and decide if they want to have a meeting with you. Their feedback will be available by April 29th (depending on your registration date).
If your company was not selected by any UN Organization, you have an option to cancel registration by May 6th, 2022 with a full refund minus an administration fee of $75.
If you are selected by one or more UN Organizations, we will schedule your 1-on-1 meetings considering the workshop preferences you selected during the registration process. Planned workshops that are considered are:
In general we do our best to respect the 3 workshops you want to attend, and schedule meetings at different times during the 2-day Seminar.
If, subject to EUPF appreciation, the sanitary conditions or regulations for the admission in the US do not allow anymore for an “in person” seminar, the selected dates will stand. EUPF is fully prepared to revert to a virtual session.
If the seminar reverts to a virtual event, fees charged by EUPF will be adjusted from 975 USD to 495 USD for the first registered representative and 95 USD for the second and following representatives. Companies or individuals having already disbursed the full fee for an “in person” seminar will be reimbursed accordingly.
If an application for cancellation is transmitted to EUPF 30 days before the seminar takes place and derives from the inability to ensure a “one on one” meeting with a UN official for the representative and/or company applying for cancellation, the latter are entitled to a reimbursement of the fees already disbursed, exclusive of the initial processing fees (they amount to about 30 USD per registration and are not collected by nor kept by EUPF).
If the country where you are based does not have a country representative, you can contact info@eupf.org for any question or comment.
Please notice that we are not doing sponsorships since we want all participant companies to have equal opportunities and exposure for the same rate.
