Accordingly, HCM City and the EuroCham will work together in promoting MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences, and events) and cuisinary tourism in the city in the 2022-2024 period.
Under the agreement, the two sides will strengthen activities on market research, tourism statistics and human resources training, while sharing experience in tourism management and operation.
They will expand the direct channel of promotion to introduce the image of the city to more European firms and citizens in Vietnam as well as those in foreign countries.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, EuroCham Chairman Alain Cany said that tourism is one of the dynamic sectors of Vietnam. Despite impacts of COVID-19, the sector is recovering, he noted, adding that EuroCham hailed Vietnam’s door-open policies, including visa exemption for European visitors, to promote this process.
With its role of connecting European firms with their peers in Vietnam, EuroCham hopes to help the city to strengthen its capacity to research, develop its website, share database, and train human resources, he said.
