[THROWBACK] The conference on October 8 in Paris: Investment Opportunities in Vietnam
As part of the visit to France by His Excellency To Lam, General Secretary of the Communist Party and President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, as well as on the occasion of the Francotech fair and the Francophonie Summit, the CCIFV organized a unique conference at the Paris Île-de-France Chamber of Commerce and Industry. This event highlighted the vast investment opportunities and economic potential of Vietnam.
The conference underscored the importance of the recently established global strategic partnership aimed at strengthening bilateral relations between the two countries. The identified priority sectors include mobility, energy transition, agro-industry, sustainable urban infrastructure, and artificial intelligence. This initiative positions France as the first European country and the eighth in the world to establish such a partnership with Vietnam.
