Trade Opportunities in Vietnam

Trade fairs and conferences take place in the capital of Vietnam at the Hanoi International Exhibition Center and in the south, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center. Each year, world-class trade fairs unfold on over 13,000 square meters of exhibition space, attracting over 15,000 exhibitors and several hundred thousand visitors eager to establish trade relations in Vietnam.
Promising opportunities for businesses looking to expand into Vietnam lie in sectors such as telecommunications, information technology, power generation, transportation infrastructure construction, environmental project management and technology, aviation, defense, education, and the growing healthcare sector. The government's expansion programs and increased willingness of people to spend on medical treatments contribute to the growth in the healthcare sector. 

Why Attend Trade Fairs in Vietnam?

Vietnam hosts an increasing number of top-notch exhibitions and trade fairs each year, attracting participants and visitors from around the world. As one of Asia's economic powerhouses, Vietnam's trade scene is vibrant. The main trade hubs, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), offer unique opportunities for business interactions. Vietnamese entrepreneurs show particular interest in new and innovative services and products, especially those from Europe and the United States. This growing trend is fueled by rising consumer demands, and businesses are competing to meet these needs.
