This is also an opportunity for Party and State leaders, ministries, departments and branches to meet and exchange with the business community, listen to recommendations and proposals on mechanisms and policies to support businesses to operate effectively in a multicultural environment; honor businesses that meet Vietnamese Business Culture standards; and widely spread the Campaign "Building Vietnamese Corporate Culture" launched by the Prime Minister.

Speaking at the opening of the Forum, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Trinh Thi Thuy said that in recent times, the Vietnamese business community has grown rapidly in number and scale, making important contributions to the strategic goals of socio-economic development.

Many businesses have actively participated in poverty reduction programs, gratitude programs, and support programs for the community and the country; building close relationships to create the strength of national solidarity.

Enterprises have made efforts to build business culture and corporate culture on the basis of inheriting and promoting national cultural values, creating soft power to promote sustainable business development.

Deputy Minister Trinh Thi Thuy informed that in the current period, facing opportunities and challenges, Vietnam has identified culture as an important endogenous resource. Protecting cultural identity and promoting the potential of national cultural strength in building corporate culture and business culture are important solutions for national development.

"The Party and State are making efforts to create a healthy business environment to attract foreign investors, while promoting the endogenous strength of culture to form and develop Vietnam's cultural industry, building strong Vietnamese enterprises that are not only competitive at home but also regional and world-class.

Each enterprise becomes a cultural ambassador promoting the country and people of Vietnam to the world, spreading the soft power of Vietnamese culture," Deputy Minister Trinh Thi Thuy emphasized.

The Deputy Minister hopes that the fourth annual National Forum "Culture with Enterprises" will be an active activity to widely spread the meanings and messages of the Campaign, highlighting the role of culture in the sustainable development of the country.

At the same time, exploiting the potential and strengths of cultural resources as a very important lever to restore and develop the economy, promote the development of business culture, corporate culture, form an increasingly large and strong community of businesses that meet Vietnamese business culture standards, and move towards approaching world business culture standards, so that our country can integrate quickly, widely and sustainably in the coming time.
