Budapest (VNA) – The Vietnamese business community in Europe has an important role to play in promoting trade ties between Vietnam and Europe, heard the 12th European Overseas Vietnamese Business Conference in Budapest, Hungary from September 29 to October 2.

As the largest annual event of the business community in Europe, the conference drew the participation of more than 400 delegates, including leaders from Hungarian ministries, sectors, business association and trade promotion organisation; representatives from Vietnamese embassies and trade offices in Europe; overseas Vietnamese enterprises from 19 European countries, and many Vietnam national-branded firms.

Over the past time, the overseas Vietnamese firms have served as a bridge to bring a large volume of Vietnamese goods to the European market, they said, adding more efforts should be exerted to capitalise on the potential of the two markets.

Transforming business activities in the digital technology era and promoting Vietnamese exports, especially those from the central localities, to the European market were tabled for discussion.

At the event, the Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency arranged an exhibition to introduce Vietnamese brands as well as connect the national-branded firms with overseas Vietnamese businesses in Europe and many other importers.

This was an opportunity for Vietnam’s quality products to get closer to the overseas Vietnamese, and for European enterprises to update information and seek investment opportunities in the Vietnamese market.

A business-matching event between the Vietnamese and Hungarian firms were held on October 2 on the sidelines of the conferene./.
