Participating Italian firms and trade associations highly evaluated the Vietnamese market, considering greater affiliation with Vietnamese companies as a priority in the near future.
While talking over detailed cooperation steps in the sectors of infrastructure, food processing and tourism, both sides committed to continue implementing joint projects.
The Vietnam-Italy economic cooperation workshop was jointly organised by the Trade Office at the Vietnamese Embassy in Italy and the General Confederation of Italian Industry (Confindustria), within the framework of a national commercial promotion programme devised by the Vietnam Association of Consumer Goods Development (VACOD).
The Vietnam – Italy joint committee on economic cooperation will host its second session in October in Rome. The first session was organised in Hanoi in November 2014.-VNA
