To achieve these goals, The Vinh Phuc Industrial Zones Management Board will focus on localized investment promotion, engaging with businesses, preparing industrial zone infrastructure to attract investors, connecting with potential investors and corporations, enhancing foreign investment effectiveness per Resolution 50-NQ/TW, and targeting investment in key industries.

In addition, the board will coordinate with relevant agencies and localities to foster and strengthen the connection between FDI firms and DDI companies; encourage companies to boost business cooperation, transfer technology, convert from processing and assembling to design and manufacturing, increase added value, and create a foundation to entice and develop high-tech industries.

At the same time, the agency will effectively grasp investment situations and trends in the world and in the region, and create practical forecasts to have appropriate, flexible and timely solutions in investment promotion, appraisal and licensing and provide favorable conditions for foreign investors.
