On 24 August 2026, EuroCham Vietnam attended the official reception celebrating the 81st National Day of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam at the Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) People’s Committee. Organised by the HCMC Department of Foreign Affairs (DOFA) and hosted by Chairman Nguyen Van Duoc, the reception brought together city leaders and members of the diplomatic corps for a formal ceremony and high-level networking.
On the sidelines of the reception, EuroCham Vice-Chair Erick Contreras and Advocacy Manager Phuong Vu met with Chairman Nguyen Van Duoc and Deputy Director of HCMC DOFA Tran Xuan Thuy to brief them on the upcoming GEFE 2027, taking place in HCMC on 9–11 March 2027. They also discussed opportunities for cooperation and sought the support of HCMC authorities in the lead-up to the event.
EuroCham extends our thanks to the HCMC leadership for hosting this warm and meaningful reception. We remain committed to strengthening dialogue and cooperation with HCMC authorities and supporting the city’s sustainable growth and international integration.
