The Vietnam Export Promotion Forum 2025 opened in Hanoi on November 26 under the theme “Go Global – Winning Global Markets.”
Co-organised by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and Swiss government-backed projects, the forum focused on solutions to help Vietnamese exporters enhance competitiveness and capture new market opportunities as global supply chains shift and trade competition intensifies.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Vu Ba Phu, Director of the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s Trade Promotion Agency, said the forum’s theme reflects Vietnam’s determination to support businesses in expanding globally with fresh thinking, innovative models, and approaches aligned with international trade trends, particularly digital transformation and sustainable development.
According to Mr. Phu, Vietnam’s high level of economic openness offers significant opportunities to increase market share, diversify export destinations, and deepen participation in global value chains. He highlighted major markets such as the United States, the EU, Japan, the Middle East, and Africa, with untapped potentials.
Experts at the forum urged Vietnamese manufacturers and exporters to prioritize three strategic pillars — process standardisation, traceability and transparency, and digital transformation — to expand global reach amid the growing prominence of green and digital trade.
