Dear Business Leaders,
The Singapore Manufacturing Federation (SMF), together with Vietcombank, will be jointly organising an exclusive, complimentary half-day seminar on “Vietnam: Your Jewel for Business in Asia Pacific” on Monday, 28 September 2026, from 3.00pm to 5.45pm, including a networking reception. Registration will commence at 2.15pm.
The seminar will be held at: Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Centre (AMIC), #01-05/06, Blk A, Lobby 2, Alexandra TechnoPark, 438A Alexandra Road, Singapore 119967
This seminar is supported by the Embassy of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam in Singapore. We are honoured to have H.E. Tran Phuoc Anh, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam to Singapore, as our Guest of Honour, who will deliver the Opening Address.
As supply chains shift and new markets emerge, one question increasingly dominates boardroom discussions: Where is the next strategic frontier for growth, business expansion and manufacturing excellence?
The answer is Vietnam – a nation of over 100 million people, a rapidly growing middle class and an economy that has become increasingly attractive for high-tech and precision manufacturing.
With the recent elevation of Singapore-Vietnam relations to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, bilateral ties are at an all-time high, creating a strategic window of opportunity for businesses looking to expand into Vietnam and strengthen their presence in the Asia Pacific region.
SMF and Vietcombank are pleased to invite Chairman, Chief Executives, General Managers and senior management of companies and organisations to attend this complimentary seminar, designed to provide a strategic roadmap for businesses exploring opportunities in this dynamic market.
