On November 10, the Da Nang Young Entrepreneurs Association and the American Chamber of Commerce in Da Nang (AMCHAM) organized the forum on the Vietnam - US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership: What opportunities for Vietnamese businesses? with the participation of the authorities and businesses of Quang Nam, Da Nang and US businesses.

At the event, US Ambassador Marc E. Knapper said that at the time the two countries normalized relations in 1995, economic cooperation between the two sides was zero.
But currently, two-way trade between Vietnam and the US has reached an impressive figure of 140 billion USD/year.
The US has become Vietnam's number 1 export market and one of the top 10 FDI investors.
Meanwhile, Vietnam also occupies the position of an important trade partner of the US in the Southeast Asia region.
The US Ambassador said he was very pleased to see Boeing aircraft components being produced in Da Nang by a US-invested factory.
At the same time, we look forward to more such cooperation projects in other localities.
Through specific and effective cooperation, businesses of the two countries have deeply participated in promoting Vietnam - US relations.
According to Mr. Marc E. Knapper, Vietnam-US cooperation is a relationship based on respect for each other's sovereignty, independence, territorial integrity and political systems.
Therefore, it can be said that America's success is Vietnam's success and vice versa, Vietnam's success is also America's success.

Upgrading the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership is not just a slogan
"The Vietnam-US relationship has never been as strong as it is today, especially since the US President's visit to Vietnam and the announcement of upgrading the bilateral relationship. That has opened a new era in strategic cooperation in all aspects, including economics, trade, and investment," said the US ambassador.
At the same time, the US ambassador said that the US will actively support Vietnam in becoming a high-income country by 2045 and successfully transforming into a digital economy.
This includes helping to build a semiconductor industry so that Vietnam can join the global semiconductor supply chain. At the same time, it supports the training of a workforce in the information technology sector to operate future factories.
According to Mr. Marc E. Knapper, upgrading the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership is not just a slogan. It is a commitment to strengthen the future relationship between the two countries.
At the forum, businesses from both countries met to discuss and explore cooperation opportunities in the fields of education; infrastructure and production; SMEs and supply chains.
