According to ICHAM Chairman Michele D’Ercole, the chamber supports not only the Italian enterprises to develop in Việt Nam but also the Vietnamese companies who are interested in exploring the Italian market to find partners, suppliers, and products.
He said ICHAM has a strong understanding and analysis of the Vietnamese market, forming strong connections with business communities and local institutions, and a particular predisposition to form direct relationships with companies, due to their nature as associations of entrepreneurs at the service of other entrepreneurs, a marked propensity to work according to parameters of effectiveness and efficiency typical of a company, a necessary requirement to offer competitive services on the market.
Currently, Hà Nội has 117 products from 81 enterprises with key industrial products, including high-tech industry enterprises like VNPT, FPT, Misa, electricity and electronics providers like Canon, Maiko, Cadisun, Xuân Lộc Thọ, Trần Phú, Rạng Đông, ACID, textile firms such as May10, Phúc Sơn and enterprises in mechanical engineering and other industries like Sơn Hà, Sunhouse, Tân Á Đại Thành, Vicostone.
