Forvis Mazars in Vietnam contributes to strategic business dialogue in Brussels

The mission provided an opportunity for European businesses to engage directly with EU policymakers on key priorities, including the implementation of the EU–Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA), investment conditions, technology and the green transition.

Connecting business priorities with policy dialogue

Over four days, the delegation engaged with the European Commission, including European Commissioner for Trade and Economic Security Maroš Šefčovič. The discussions focused on practical challenges facing European companies operating in or entering the Vietnamese market, particularly certification requirements, regulatory procedures and administrative processes.

European expertise in infrastructure, energy and environmental solutions was also highlighted as an area of opportunity, particularly as Vietnam continues to develop its infrastructure and advance its green transition.

Minh also shared insights into Vietnam’s ongoing reforms and infrastructure investment priorities, highlighting areas of particular interest to European businesses exploring opportunities in the market.

Supporting dialogue with Vietnam’s leadership

Minh also involved in organizing the High-Level Business Roundtable with Vietnam’s General Secretary and President Tô Lâm on 22 October. Organised by Vietnam’s Ministry of Finance and the Embassy of Vietnam in Belgium, the event brought together business leaders and senior officials, including European Commission Executive Vice-President Roxana Mînzatu and First Vice-President of the Belgian Senate Andries Gryffroy.

European business leaders highlighted their interest in expanding investment and business activities in Vietnam. The discussions also underscored opportunities for cooperation in strategic infrastructure, clean energy and advanced technologies, alongside efforts to develop sustainable and responsible value chains.
