The four-day forum brings together 1,500 domestic and international delegates to discuss transforming growth models, refining institutional frameworks, finance, strategic technologies, and innovation.
Le Truong Duy, Director of the Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution in Ho Chi Minh City and a member of the organizing committee, said the main forum sessions on Tuesday and Thursday are co-branded with the World Economic Forum (WEF).
“This represents a big step forward in the partnership between Vietnam and the WEF. It is a model that is almost the first of its kind globally. The WEF serves as a platform for us to connect with global partners and foster various forms of collaboration: public-private, private-private, and public-public partnership,” Mr. Duy said.
On Wednesday morning, Prime Minister Le Minh Hung is scheduled to hold a 60-minute dialogue with senior WEF leaders on positioning Vietnam in the global economy.
During the forum, Ho Chi Minh City is expected to announce 12 investment projects by domestic and foreign enterprises, with total registered capital exceeding 13 billion USD. The projects focus on logistics, energy, and infrastructure.
