With over 50 leading U.S. corporations and enterprises, this is the largest business delegation ever to Viet Nam to discuss investment and business opportunities.
The delegation came on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the establishment of bilateral relations and the 10th anniversary of the comprehensive partnership between Viet Nam and the U.S.

According to the Minister, the relationship between Viet Nam and the U.S. has developed comprehensively and achieved many good results. Economic, trade and investment cooperation continues to be a key pillar and driving force of the bilateral ties.
The U.S. is currently the second-largest trading partner and one of Viet Nam's most important export markets.
The U.S. is also a crucial ODA donor and the 11th investment partner among Viet Nam's 142 countries and territories.

Based on the proposals exchanged and shared during the meeting, the Ministry of Planning and Investment will synthesize and research to advise and propose to the Government to continue to improve institutions and policies.
At the same time, the ministry is committed to building a transparent, friendly business investment environment and creating the most favorable conditions for foreign corporations and investors, including the United States and especially USABC members.
