From May 4-7, 2026, the German American Chamber of Commerce, Inc. in New York, on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy, will organize a delegation trip for buyers from the United Nations (UN) to the IFAT trade fair in Munich, Germany.
The 4-day delegation trip is exclusively organized for UN procurement officers from the Environmental and Sustainability Technology sector to provide information about the German market such as waste, water, sewage and sustainability and to learn about new products and developments.
