TULIP Consulting and the Geneva Platform for Resilient Value Chains sign Memorandum of Understanding

TULIP Consulting is pleased to announce that, on the margins of the WTO Public Forum 2026, it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Geneva Platform for Resilient Value Chains (GPRVC), hosted by the Centre for Trade and Economic Integration (CTEI) at the Geneva Graduate Institute.

Under the agreement, the two Geneva-based organisations will support each other’s work on trade, climate and resilient value chains, pairing TULIP’s trade law and policy expertise with GPRVC’s technical, economic and supply chain expertise. Through deeper collaboration, the two organisations aim to reduce the gap between value chain expertise and trade law and policy, ensuring that trade law and policy serves as a lever for a global green transition.

“I have long admired and benefited from TULIP Consulting’s trade law expertise and wider perspective on how to drive change in today’s complex geopolitical environment. As small organisations focused on increasing climate and sustainable development ambition, it makes sense for us to exchange our expertise rather than building up duplicative capacities.”

Colette van der Ven, Founder and Executive Director of TULIP Consulting

“GPRVC’s deep technical, economic and supply chain expertise is extremely relevant in today’s increasingly fragmented geopolitical landscape, and a natural complement to TULIP’s work on sustainable trade law and policy. Moving towards resilient value chains requires a deep understanding of the technical dimensions of clean technology, coupled with adequate trade policy instruments. As two small, mission-driven organisations, we will each go further in achieving our missions by pooling our expertise in these respective areas.”
