‘’Navigating the future: Adapting Viet Nam’s Policies and Business Strategies to Global Economic, Technological and Environmental Shifts’’
The Central Institute for Economic Management (“CIEM”), under the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) of Viet Nam, and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) co-organize an annual economic forum entitled “Viet Nam Economic Pulse” (VEP). The primary objective of the VEP is to create a new channel to engage government officials, academic institutions, the business community and associations in inclusive discussions on economic affairs, socio-economic development policy and national development plans. The discussions help form a national consensus in support of a development process that leaves no one behind. In-depth research on key development issues and the involvement of Vietnamese organizations and individuals with diverse perspectives will enrich the national dialogue on economic issues and contribute to the achievement of national development goals.

The topic of the VEP 2024 is: “’Navigate the future: Adapting Viet Nam’s Policies and Business Strategies to Global Economic, Technological and Environmental Shifts”. The developments of geopolitical conflicts remain unpredictable, and the global economy is undergoing a transition marked by a mixture of liberalization and protectionism, between multilateralism and bilateralism. Innovation, science-technology, and environmental protection are becoming global trends. In this context, free trade agreements and international commitments have created a new global playing field with many new standards. This presents both challenges and opportunities for countries, including Viet Nam, to adjust their strategies and policies that integrate into global value chains, enhance export competitiveness, and effectively leverage trade advantages and foreign investment flows for economic development.
