According to the organiser, this year’s expo will feature a dedicated zone for electronics, machinery, and supporting industries.

A highlight of the event will be a supporting industry pavilion, co-organised with the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and the Hanoi Association for Key Industrial Products (HAMI), gathering reputable domestic manufacturers. Exhibitors will not only showcase products but also demonstrate production capabilities, fostering connections between Vietnamese businesses and foreign investors.

The pavilion will feature leading Vietnamese firms such as Vietnam - France Aluminum, Hoang Vu Stainless Steel, Vinacomin, and Vnsteel Thang Long, alongside international manufacturers from the Republic of Korea, China, and Belarus, among others.

The event will also host key seminars on green transition and supply chain development, including discussions on exports to the EU, AI application in cross-border trade, and sustainable industrial growth.

Notably, the Supply Link programme will facilitate one-on-one business matching between 10 foreign direct investment (FDI) firms and 100 Vietnamese suppliers in the supporting industry.

Vietnam currently has around 3,100 mechanical engineering firms, accounting for 30% of the country’s processing and manufacturing enterprises.

However, supporting industries remain underdeveloped, with only 500 enterprises involved, just 0.2% of Vietnam’s total businesses.

Additionally, over 30% of firms still rely entirely on manual equipment, with less than 10% utilising automation or robotics, posing challenges for the efforts toward green transition.
