ENTECH HANOI 2023 helps enhance competitiveness of local businesses

Upon addressing the opening ceremony, Nguyen Manh Quyen, vice chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee, emphasised that over the past 14 years the fair has served as an effective bridge in strengthening trade exchanges in the field of energy and the environment. Indeed, it has been especially fruitful in attracting the participation of large enterprises from the Republic of Korea, Japan, and the EU.

Furthermore, it has helped the business community to gain access to cutting-edge technologies with high knowledge content, a factor which has contributed to saving energy, reducing environmental pollution and input costs, whilst simultaneously accelerating the technological transfer, Quyen noted.

The three-day event attracted the participation of 175 businesses from many countries and territories around the globe, of which 65% are foreign firms.

A number of workshops relating to energy saving and environmental protection solutions are set to be held as part of the occasion. In line with this, the Ministry of Science and Technology has collaborated with relevant agencies to host the "Energy and Environment Technology Forum 2023".

These activities are therefore expected to fine-tune policies relating to the development of energy and environment technology, expand international co-operation in scientific research, develop new technologies, and attract capital sources from international partners, thereby contributing to sustainable development.
