Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will be able to seek partners, talk business and showcase their products at National SME Week events in November.

The first SME week will take place in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and other Vietnamese economic hubs November 17-21, the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) said in a statement.

Business forums, exhibitions, TV talk shows and training courses will all be part of the event, said VCCI, the week’s organizer.

Some 300,000 SMEs were operating in the country last year, according to VCCI estimates.
