Based on the Eastern Expressway Economic Connectivity Agreement signed by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) with four provinces and cities: Quang Ninh, Hai Phong, Hai Duong , and Hung Yen, and building on the success of the Eastern Expressway Industrial Park Development Forum held in 2023, on the afternoon of December 12th, under the direction of the Eastern Expressway Sub-regional Economic Connectivity Council, the VCCI Legal Department, the Quang Ninh Provincial Economic Zone Management Board, and the Business Forum Magazine organized the Eastern Expressway Industrial Park Forum.

Overview of the opening session of the Forum.

With the theme "Connecting to Promote the Development of Smart Manufacturing Supply Chains," the forum will bring together experts to discuss solutions to promote smart manufacturing supply chains in sub-regional industrial parks, thereby opening opportunities for industrial parks along the Eastern Expressway to effectively connect with global smart manufacturing supply chains.

At this forum, VCCI announced the report on the economic situation of the Eastern Expressway sub-region. The report provided a comprehensive analysis of the economic situation, business environment, infrastructure, and sustainable development efforts of the VEHEC region; in recent years, the strategic importance of the region encompassing the four provinces and cities of Quang Ninh, Hai Phong, Hai Duong, and Hung Yen has been enhanced, as the region is oriented towards becoming a center for industry, logistics, and green development, in line with national priorities for sustainable and inclusive growth.

The report serves as an informational resource for stakeholders including policymakers, investors and local businesses who want to better understand the economic drivers, challenges and opportunities of the VEHEC region.

On the other hand, through the analysis of macroeconomic data and the business environment, the report has identified key limitations and proposed specific policy recommendations, aiming to provide useful information to support VEHEC in continuing its transformation into a sustainable and highly developed economic growth center.

Notably, the findings and recommendations in the report aim to strengthen VEHEC’s position as a strategic economic region, in line with national guidelines and regional aspirations to promote long-term and inclusive prosperity.

Previously, on July 28, 2022, the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and four provinces and cities signed an Agreement on Economic Cooperation for the Eastern Expressway Axis. Immediately afterwards, the Vietnam Economic Cooperation Council for the Eastern Expressway Axis (VEHEC) was established to realize these agreements, based on promoting the role of connectivity between localities located along the expressway axis.

After 2 years of implementation, the Eastern Expressway Sub-regional Economic Connectivity Council has organized many conferences, seminars, linkage forums, investment promotion programs, and training for businesses on policies and laws...

From there, it has created a balanced and sustainable region, associated with the development of economic corridors; connecting appropriately with the needs and strengths of localities linked with other localities in the region to create unity and combined strength in economy, culture, society, national defense and security for the whole region and the whole country...

In particular, it has created opportunities to connect industrial park developers, investors, and the government in line with a green and sustainable future.
