ProcuraMED Strategic Procurement Unified Platform on GPP and PPI
DESCRIPTION
The European Commission has identified Strategic Procurement as a crucial element in guiding Europe’s transition toward an innovative and sustainable economy. In line with this vision, the ProcuraMED project has been est
ablished to accelerate the adoption of advanced green technologies and innovation capacities in the Mediterranean region. By promoting the use of Green Public Procurement (GPP) and Public Procurement of Innovation (PPI), ProcuraMED facilitates the integration of green innovations into public services, thus fostering competitive, sustainable, and resilient ecosystems.
