The event, jointly held by EuroCham, Việt Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s Hải Phòng branch, and Deep C Industrial Zone, attracted more than 80 representatives from companies in the city, Hà Nội and from EU countries’ embassies in Việt Nam. The seminar therefore gave audiences an insight into changes in trading regulations, market access, regional implications and expectations from the European business community in Việt Nam. The EU is currently Việt Nam’s second biggest export market and Việt Nam is EU’s 11th biggest source of import. About 900 European enterprises have invested in Việt Nam, making it the destination in South East Asia with the largest European business community. They give extra incentives to attract supporting industries into Việt Nam, improving the supply chain and localisation rates.
