Conference seeks to boost investment link between Vietnam and Japan
An online trade conference on boosting investment link between Vietnam and Japan was held on September 22, gathering representatives from more than 400 Japanese firms and Vietnamese industrial parks and businesses.
The event was jointly held by the Ministry of Trade’s Department of Trade Promotion (VIETRADE), the Vietnam Trade Office in Japan, and the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO) along with trade promotion agencies of Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City.
Participants at the event reviewed the Japanese investment flows in Vietnam and discuss ways to boost the bilateral investment link in the context of the complicated development of the COVID-19 pandemic in the world and in Vietnam in particular.
Representatives from Da Nang City and Ho Chi Minh City also introduced the Japanese firms to their business investment environment, as well as their efforts and achievements in containing the pandemic while maintaining economic development.
The event aimed to provide a direct information exchange channel for businesses and investors in order to update them on the COVID-19 situation in Vietnam, thus boosting effective coordination with local authorities and relevant agencies in maintaining safe business and production activities amidst the pandemic.
A trade exchange event was also organised within the framework of the conference, attracting the participation of nearly 30 Japanese investors and Vietnamese industrial parks.
