Vietnam's participation in WEF 2019 will advertise its recent socio-economic achievements and international integration, particularly the new free trade agreements Vietnam has been negotiating or has signed, including the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) agreement and the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA).
Vietnam and the WEF are expected to sign a cooperation agreement to build a Center for Industrial Revolution 4.0 in Vietnam and a Letter of Intent in dealing with plastic waste.
