The Ho Chi Minh City Association of Mechanical – Electrical Enterprises (HAMEE), in collaboration with the Vietnam Trade Office in the US and the Asian American Chamber of Commerce (AACC), recently organised a Vietnam-US trade promotion forum on smart technology.
HAMEE groups over 30 member companies, representing industries such as supporting technology, processing components, manufacturing and automation machinery, electrical equipment and energy, and steel structure and storage rack. Through the forum, the association aims to introduce the strengths and capabilities of Vietnamese companies to and explore collaboration opportunities with US and international partners.
According to HAMEE Vice President Diep Bao Canh, this is the first time the association’s member companies have sought business cooperation opportunities in the US, intending to bring their mechanical products and other Vietnamese products to the US.
Some HAMEE members have been selling their products in the US market and receiving higher evaluations compared to those from other Southeast Asian countries, he noted.
US businesses and Asian American enterprises showed their admiration for the development of smart technology and the qualifications and skills of Vietnamese young workforce.
Vietnamese-American entrepreneur Kien Pham, owner of a company specialising in apartment construction services, said after this forum, his firm will collaborate with HAMEE members on several steel structure and electrical products.
On the occasion, HAMEE and AACC signed a memorandum of understanding on strengthening trade and investment cooperation, promoting exchanges of business delegations between the two countries, and participating in seminars, special studies, and exhibitions in the two countries and the region.
Previously, HAMEE’s members took part in the second International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) 2024 in Chicago, which brought together reputable manufacturers and buyers. The exhibition provided a good chance for Vietnamese mechanical-electrical companies and supporting industries to showcase and affirm the quality of their products./.
