On September 25, 2026, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam (CanCham Vietnam), in partnership with Ascentium, hosted the Economic Breakfast Briefing: Vietnam Half-Year Review & Outlook, welcoming business leaders, investors, and chamber members for an in-depth assessment of Vietnam’s mid-year economic performance.

The session brought together key market perspectives covering Vietnam’s macroeconomic indicators, cross-border trade trajectories, foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows, and ongoing structural shifts across the commercial and industrial real estate sectors. Following the presentations, an interactive panel discussion and open Q&A session allowed attendees to address operational challenges, test strategic assumptions, and discuss practical risk-management approaches directly with the experts.
CanCham Vietnam extends its sincere appreciation to our distinguished speakers for delivering their practical analyses and market expertise:
- Mr. Michael Kokalari – VinaCapital Fund Management
- Mr. Jack Nguyen – Ascentium
- Mr. Tuyen Huynh – Knight Frank
Our sincere thanks also go to our event partner, Ascentium, for their close collaboration in bringing this briefing to life, and to all members and guests whose active participation made the morning a meaningful exchange.
CanCham Vietnam looks forward to welcoming our business community to our upcoming executive briefings and industry events.
