The World Trade Point Federation (WTPF), an international non-governmental organization established in 2000, grew out of an innovative programme of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). Through a network of more than 120 trade information and facilitation centres, known as Trade Points, the WTPF assists small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in over 90 countries worldwide to trade internationally through the use of electronic commerce technologies. Capitalizing on over a decade of Trade Point market presence, the Federation constantly seeks strategic partners for the development of new value-added services to enable it to better serve its clients.
The World Trade Point Federation has strengthened its cooperation with the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe through the signature of a Memorandum of Understanding (19 November 2004).
This important step will allow both organizations to intensify their efforts by working more closely together in the fields of trade facilitation and electronic business, enterprise development, information dissemination, in order to develop their networks further. In addition, regular meetings will be held in order to develop specific activities or projects.
