The three-day event, jointly held by the municipal Department of Industry and Trade and Busan city of the Republic of Korea (RoK), is expected to create cooperation opportunities in energy and environment, Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People’s Committee Nguyen Manh Quyen said in his opening remarks.
It is also hoped to help enterprises in Hanoi and Vietnam at large access the world’s cutting-edge technologies towards technology transfer, he added.
Notably, more than 65% of participating businesses this year came from foreign countries, helping the exhibition advance to the international level.
With the theme of "Energy Transition, Sustainable Development,” Hanoi aims to encourage enterprises that are consuming much energy to renew technologies and use new energy sources to improve the quality of their products and services.
