At the meeting, Minister Thang expressed gratitude for the positive support of Ambassador Knapper and the US Embassy in Vietnam in recent times. The minister asserted this as clear evidence of the effectiveness of the Vietnam – US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
Vietnam is set to send a Vietnamese delegation to the SelectUSA Investment Summit, which will take place from May 11 to 14 in the US state of Maryland. Led by the Ministry of Finance, this will be the largest-ever Vietnamese delegation to the event. This is one of the key activities to boost trade and investment ties between Vietnam and the US.
"The delegation features the highest number of registered participants to date. This serves as a testament to the growing interest of Vietnamese corporations in the investment climate in the US. They are looking to increase their presence in the market," said Thang.
In addition to engaging in and chairing activities at the summit, the delegation will work with American regulatory bodies, associations, and leading businesses in the fields of semiconductors, high-tech, startups, banks, green finance, and digital finance.
"Through these initiatives, the government would like to send a message of encouraging bilateral economic and trade ties in a fair, mutually beneficial, and sustainable manner, especially at a time when the world is undergoing profound changes in global trade policies and environments," Minister Thang added.
"Such strong interest and enthusiastic engagement underscores an important moment in Vietnam and US ties, as 2025 marks 30 years of diplomatic ties between the two countries. Our two countries have witnessed significant developments in their bilateral relations in recent years, especially since the establishment of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2023," said Knapper.
