Through the Forum, participating Vietnamese enterprises were able to engage with global economic and investment trends and connect with leading corporations, investment funds, and reputable organizations, including Mercer, SS&C Technologies, Coinbase, Indus Capital Partners, AMD, Intel, Google, EMI Express Manufacturing, and NousLogic Telehealth.
Notably, the Forum event in San Jose provided a platform for direct dialogue between the leadership of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnamese businesses, and U.S. partners.
