Ministry of Foreign Affairs Supports Entry into Overseas Procurement Markets Including the UN... 'Public Procurement Export Consultation'
Online Event from the 23rd to the 4th of Next Month
219 Domestic Companies Participate with 53 Overseas Clients and Buyers
[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will hold the '2020 Public Procurement Export Consultation,' the largest domestic overseas procurement market entry consultation, online from the 23rd to December 4th. Since 2007, the Ministry has held annual UN procurement briefings to support Korean companies' entry into UN and overseas procurement markets.
This export consultation consists of the 'Overseas Procurement Market Entry Briefing' held on the 23rd and 24th, and the '1:1 Business Consultation' conducted from the 24th to December 4th, with 53 overseas ordering agencies and buyers and 219 domestic companies expected to participate.
During the 'Overseas Procurement Market Entry Briefing,' explanations about the characteristics of the UN and overseas procurement markets and methods of entry will be provided. Especially this year, to support Korean companies manufacturing COVID-19 quarantine supplies in entering the UN procurement market, a procurement officer from the World Health Organization [WHO] will be invited to explain the WHO procurement market related to COVID-19.
Through this briefing, it is expected that Korean companies' understanding of the UN and overseas procurement markets will be enhanced and relevant information provided, thereby promoting entry into these markets. In the '1:1 Business Consultation,' individual video consultations between domestic companies and overseas ordering agencies and buyers will be conducted, which is anticipated to help Korean companies conclude export contracts.
