Italian machinery industry seeks opportunities in Vietnam
A seminar on the Italian machinery manufacturing industry’s business and investment opportunities in Vietnam was held in Bologna , central Italy , from February 11-12.
The seminar, co-organised by the Italian Employers’ Federation (Confindustria) in Emilia Romagna and Vietnamese Embassy in Italy, aimed to create conditions for machinery manufacturers in Italy in general and Emilia Romagna region in particular to get more access to information on market demand and strengthen cooperation with Vietnamese partners.
Speaking at the seminar, Vietnamese Ambassador to Italy Dang Khanh Thoai highlighted Vietnam ’s investment attraction policy and the country’s large demand for the manufacturing industry, which plays an important role in the national industrialisation and modernisation process.
Thoai expressed his wish that Italian businesses will cooperate with Vietnamese partners in training high-quality workers as well as exchange production and management experiences. He said he hoped that Italian investors will participate in bids for Vietnam ’s large-scale industrial projects in the coming time.
The machinery manufacturing industry is one of the strengths of Emilia Romagna region, which boasts more than 13,000 small- and medium-sized enterprises operating in this field.
Italy ’s investment in Vietnam remains modest with 43 projects capitalised 162 million USD, ranking 33 rd among countries and territories investing in the country.
