The eighth International Trade Fair for Laboratory Technology, Analysis, Diagnostics and Biotechnology (Analytica Vietnam 2025), co-organised by the National Agency for Science and Technology Information and Statistics under the Ministry of Science and Technology and Germany’s Messe München GmbH, officially opened on April 2 at the Sài Gòn Exhibition and Convention Centre (SECC) in District 7.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Hoàng Minh said that in recent years, the rise and rapid spread of infectious and non-infectious diseases both globally and in Việt Nam have created a critical need for advanced analytical and diagnostic technologies and equipment with high accuracy and reliability.
“These factors are driving the growth of the laboratory technology, analysis, diagnostic, and biotechnology markets in the country,” he said.
