Vietnam always considers the US a partner of top significance, especially in economy, trade and investment, he said, highlighting vast untapped potential for US firms in Vietnam. He expressed hope for the US’s expanded presence in the country, especially in such key sectors as energy, high technology, semiconductor, artificial intelligence (AI), aviation, aerospace, and climate change mitigation.
Commending Vietnam’s socio-economic development strategy bolstered by recently-issued Resolution 57-NQ/TW focusing on sci-tech, innovation and digital transformation, US businesses showed strong interest in expanding investments across green transition, digital economy, circular economy, energy, high tech, AI, data management, aviation, logistics, finance, telecom, healthcare, food processing, consumer goods, tourism, education, and agriculture.
They wished for faster administrative reforms, legal stability, and incentives to boost strategic projects aligning US expertise with Vietnam’s needs.
