The seminar welcomed more than 150 delegates, including leaders and experts in foreign investment promotion, representatives of international organizations and business associations, industrial park and industrial cluster infrastructure developers, warehouse and factory providers, as well as enterprises supplying products and services to FDI companies in Vietnam.

Amid the continued shift of global FDI flows and the increasingly evident trend of supply chain restructuring, the seminar was organized to provide updates on market information and both domestic and international economic contexts, thereby promoting investment and business connectivity while fostering cooperation opportunities among investment promotion agencies, the business community, and international partners.

Mr. NGUYEN BA HAI, Deputy Director of the Center for Trade and Investment Promotion, Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency (VIETRADE), Ministry of Industry and Trade of Vietnam, delivered the opening remarks at the Seminar.

In his opening speech, Mr. Nguyen Ba Hai emphasized that mobilizing social resources and promoting public–private partnerships in foreign investment promotion activities are both necessary and highly appropriate in the current context. On one hand, such cooperation helps disseminate government information and legal policies to the business and investor community. On the other hand, it contributes to cost savings and greater efficiency in implementing foreign investment promotion activities.

Mr. NGUYEN DINH NAM, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IPAVIETNAM

Within the framework of the program, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Nam, Chairman of the Board and CEO of IPAVIETNAM, shared with all participants an overview of Vietnam’s socio-economic development and foreign investment attraction performance during the first four months of 2026. He also analyzed and assessed the impacts of geopolitical conflicts and global economic downturns on FDI relocation trends and the restructuring of global manufacturing supply chains. Based on these analyses, he forecasted future trends and identified key bottlenecks that Vietnam needs to address in order to maintain its position as a “magnet” for foreign investment in Asia.

In addition, the event featured notable presentations from representatives of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), the Vietnam Association for Supporting Industries (VASI), FECON INVEST, and Kinh Bac City Development Holding Corporation (KBC). Topics focused on connecting international investment flows through the Hong Kong market, the current state of Vietnam’s supporting industries, the industrial real estate market, and cooperation opportunities with FDI enterprises in the coming period.

Ms. TINA PHAN, Indochina Regional Director, shared her insights at the Seminar.

On the sidelines of the seminar, various promotional and business networking activities were carried out successfully and effectively, creating numerous cooperation opportunities for participating enterprises. It can be said that the value of the program lies not only in its professional content or organizational scale, but also in the practical partnerships and connections established after the event.
