On 27 August, CanCham Vietnam successfully kicked off its webinar series on Impact Investment for Trade & Supply Chains with Tech for Trade: Unlocking Canada–Vietnam Partnerships through Digital Innovation and Impact Investment. The session brought together perspectives from across the technology, investment, and business ecosystems to explore Vietnam’s digital economy, cross-border technology transfer, investment readiness, and opportunities under the CPTPP.
The program brought together leading industry and diplomatic voices:
- Opening & Keynotes: Ms. Francesca Bellone (Embassy of Canada in Vietnam), Ms. Kathy-Thuy Nguyen (IIX), and Mr. Jack Nguyen (Ascentium Vietnam).
- Case Spotlights: Ms. Phu Nguyen Thi Trong (Affina) and Ms. Huyen Luong (ECO Solutions).
- Panel Discussion: Leaders from Saigon A.I., Asia-Pacific Foundation of Canada, Export Development Canada, and Business Council Canada, moderated by CanCham Executive Director Laurence Newman.
A sincere thank you to all our speakers, panelists, and attendees across Canada, Vietnam, and beyond for their valuable contributions. Dedicated post-webinar matchmaking is currently underway to translate these discussions into tangible business partnerships ahead of our next session, Agri for Growth, on 24 September.
