In recent years, Vietnam has developed into one of the fastest growing economies in the world, which is also becoming increasingly attractive for German companies. On August 21 and 22, the capital Ho Chi Minh City will host InnoEx, one of the largest innovation fairs in Southeast Asia. Startups will have the opportunity to present themselves at the German Pavilion.
What sets Vietnam and InnoEx apart
Last year, InnoEx attracted more than 30,000 visitors from over 60 countries and provided space for a good 260 exhibitors. The growing importance of the event corresponds with Vietnam's upswing with robust growth in key sectors such as artificial intelligence, sustainability and green tech, smart manufacturing and automation, fintech, edtech and digital healthcare. As a result, the country is also becoming more and more important as a market for startups in these sectors, offering the following benefits:
Rapid introduction of green technologies and implementation of digital transformations possible.
Strong demand for technologically innovative and sustainable solutions.
Active interest in investment partnerships and company relocations.
Gateway to further expansion in Southeast Asia.
One challenge for startups from Germany is to build up the necessary network and make the right contacts to enter the Southeast Asian market. The joint stand at InnoEx will offer the best opportunities for this, with an area of 6 x 2 meters available per exhibitor. There are two service packages to choose from, including meetings with potential business partners and pitch sessions. If you would like to apply for a place at InnoEx with your startup and find out more about the services and conditions, please send an email to Corinna Seidel (info@pallas-brandfare.com). The application deadline is July 4.
