The trade office Italy keeps in Vietnam.
Established in 2008, the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam is a non-profit, trade-promoting organisation recognised by the Italian Government as a member organisation of Assocamerestero, the association of Italian chambers of commerce abroad.
What the mission commits them to
Since its establishment, the chamber has set its mission to promote economic and cultural cooperation between Italy and Vietnam through visit trips, business delegations and trade exchanges between the two countries.
In particular, the chamber supports Italian and Vietnamese organisations and businesses in finding potential partners, through market research, B2B meetings, networking events, workshops and technical seminars focused on specific fields in Vietnam and Italy.
In 2023 the chamber marked the fifteenth anniversary of its establishment. The chamber maintains statutes and ethical guidelines.
The chamber has built a business network of more than 100 members and continues to expand it.
