The Vietnam Business Forum (VBF), in collaboration with Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee, will host a dialogue under the theme: “Driving Sustainable Growth: Optimising Economic Ecosystems, Technology, and Energy” on September 18.

Policy dialogue aims at driving sustainable growth

The event will be the first time the VBF has collaborated with Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee to create a platform for leaders, experts, and the business community to discuss, share experiences, and propose strategic solutions to promote sustainable growth. The event will focus on key economic areas such as Ho Chi Minh City, the Mekong Delta, and the southeast region.

The dialogue aims to strengthen connections between the Ho Chi Minh City government, provinces, and cities in the Southeast region and the Mekong Delta, and the foreign direct investment business community.

At the same time, foreign firms are expected to comment on the investment environment and ways of improving production and business efficiency, encouraging investors to commit to long-term, strategic investments in the region.

There will be two main discussion sessions where speakers, including VBF leaders and international experts, will deliver in-depth presentations on key topics. The first presentation will be focus on optimising the economic ecosystem, focusing on the development of logistics and supply chains, human resources, and administrative procedure reforms in investment and taxation. The second will cover driving future sustainability, concentrating on alternative energy solutions and smart technology.

The VBF hopes this event will provide an opportunity to strengthen cooperation between provinces and enterprises and serve as a key forum to discuss challenges and opportunities in technology and clean energy development.
