German businesses keen on investment environment in Vietnam

A seminar entitled “Focus Vietnam” has been held in Berlin to give German and Vietnamese businesses a chance to seek partners for business and investment cooperation.

The event was attended by 150 business people from German groups involved in different areas, including those operating in Vietnam and coming from Germany’s major cities such as Berlin, Potsdam, Frankfurt and Rostock.

In his speech at the seminar, Vietnamese ambassador to Germany, Do Hoa Binh, highlighted the seminar as an excellent opportunity for German businesses to gain a better understanding of the potential of the investment environment in Vietnam.

Vietnam and Germany have maintained a strong and healthy traditional relationship and Vietnam always attaches great importance to increasing cooperation with the European country.

Binh said that Vietnam is actively cooperating with Germany to carry out many projects and to exploit the areas of Germany’s strength, such as infrastructure development, high-technology, renewal energy and the environment.

During the seminar, many German entrepreneurs raised questions about the investment environment in Vietnam, incentives for foreign investors, business experiences and challenges in the country.

The event was part of the Asia Pacific Week in Berlin, organised by the Vietnamese Embassy in Germany, in collaboration with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Berlin and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Potsdam. – VOV
