A seminar introducing economic cooperation opportunities was held in Danang on March 3, during which presentations about Vietnam’s economic development, taxes, business climate, tourism and opportunities for investing were presented.

Speaking at the conference, Phung Tan Viet, vice chairman of the municipal People’s Committee assured those in attendance that the local governmental authorities are committed to providing a solid business climate conducive to the needs of Italian companies.

Currently, a delegation of leading Italian business leaders is in Danang evaluating business opportunities, particularly in the tourism and hospitality industries and looking for prospective business partners.

Tourism plays an important role in economic relations between Vietnam and Italy and the seminar addressed opportunities for increased travel by Italian tourists thanks to the many cruise ships stopping in Danang’s harbour year-round.

At the seminar, Italy’s Livorno cruise port and Danang port signed a cooperation agreement for the current year.

Last year, the port’s total commercial trade with Italy reached nearly US$7.1 million.
