As part of the 80th anniversary of the UN and the 10th anniversary of the SDGs (United Nations Sustainable Development Goals), we will be launching a marketplace on October 23 to connect companies with members of international organizations and diplomatic missions. Just like INTERFON has done for 30 years, diplomats and international civil servants will be able to post ads looking for goods and services, and companies will be able to connect with this core target audience.
