Themed "Vietnam: FDI strategies in the new era", the annual forum focused on the FDI business sector, local governments, and Vietnamese enterprises, aiming to enhance the efficiency and contribution of the sector, promote the international economic integration of Vietnamese localities, and strengthen the participation of domestic enterprises in global supply chains.

Over the past 40 years, Vietnam's economy has grown rapidly, ranking among the top 15 countries globally in FDI attraction. Last year, Vietnam attracted 38 billion USD in FDI. By the end of the first quarter of this year, FDI inflows totaled 11 billion USD, a sign that Vietnam continues to be attractive to foreign enterprises.

As part of the forum, the Vietnam Economic Times hosted the Golden Dragon Awards 2025, honoring outstanding FDI enterprises which have led in innovation, emerging trends, and significantly contributed to socio-economic development in Vietnam.
