Recently, Attorney Yu Benjun, Senior Partner of Landing Law Offices, and Attorney Chen Xinxin, Head of Landing's Vietnam Team, accompanied a delegation from the Shanghai International Cooperation Association for Small and Medium Enterprises on a week-long, in-depth business fact-finding and exchange tour in Vietnam. Concluding the itinerary, the delegation paid an official visit to the Office of the Government of Vietnam to call on Phạm Gia Túc, Member of the Politburo of the Communist Party of Vietnam and Permanent Deputy Prime Minister of Vietnam, exchanging views on the visit's outcomes and future directions for China-Vietnam industrial cooperation.

According to a report by the Vietnam Government Portal (VGP), Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Phạm Gia Túc met on the afternoon of May 11 with the President of the Shanghai International Cooperation Association for Small and Medium Enterprises and several business leaders who were visiting to explore and understand the Vietnamese market. Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Phạm Gia Túc welcomed the delegation's trip to explore operational and investment cooperation opportunities and suggested that the association propose cooperation mechanisms and projects between member enterprises and Vietnamese companies. The Vietnamese government stated that it would facilitate and create favorable conditions for enterprises to operate and invest successfully and efficiently in Vietnam.

The delegation comprised renowned domestic entrepreneurs, chairpersons of publicly listed companies, and representatives across multiple industrial sectors. During the visit, the delegation engaged in exchanges with key financial platforms, leading enterprises, industrial conglomerates, medical institutions, and technology platforms across Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, and other regions. Key meetings and matchmaking sessions were held with organizations including VIFC-HCMC (Ho Chi Minh City International Financial Center platform), IDG Vietnam, Hoa Binh Construction Group, KN Group, Vimedimex Group, TRV (Vietnam Railway Transport), VinFintech (fintech platform under Vingroup), Thang Long Lac Viet International Hospital, and Intracom Group / Phuong Dong General Hospital.

The business tour focused primarily on topics such as international financial center development, RMB settlement, industrial funds, railway and industrial upgrades, medical and healthcare cooperation, financial technology, real estate and urban development, energy infrastructure, and vocational education. The Vietnam Government Portal also noted in its report that during their stay, the delegation held working meetings with numerous enterprises and groups in sectors such as railways, health, hospitals, and pharmaceuticals. The delegation spoke highly of cooperative directions concerning high-speed railways, urban transit, artificial intelligence, data infrastructure, the production of medical supplies and equipment, hospital management, and planning experiences related to the Ho Chi Minh City International Financial Center.

Following this fact-finding trip, multiple enterprises expressed their intentions to expand manufacturing and operational footprints in Vietnam or relocate manufacturing lines to Vietnam, pledging technology transfers, collaborative participation, and support for training high-caliber human resources.

During the meeting, Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Phạm Gia Túc noted that the areas of interest to the delegation align closely with Vietnam's priority fields for attracting investment and deepening cooperation. The Vietnamese side highlighted vocational training, mechanical and high-tech manufacturing, and transportation infrastructure such as railways, affirming that the Vietnamese government, ministries, and industrial bodies stand ready to guide local authorities in liaising with investors through relevant procedures. Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Phạm Gia Túc stressed the immense cooperative opportunities between businesses of both nations, noting that the success of Chinese enterprises is also the success of Vietnam.

Serving as a key participant and coordinating force throughout the visit, Landing (Vietnam) Law Offices provided specialized support in itinerary planning, resource liaison, legal and commercial communication, meeting logistics, and synthesizing future cooperation frameworks. Attorney Chen Xinxin observed that Vietnam is entering a new development cycle, and the outbound expansion of Chinese enterprises into Vietnam is transitioning from traditional manufacturing investments toward a new phase marked by industrial capital, financial platforms, healthcare, energy infrastructure, high-tech manufacturing, and alignment with international regulatory frameworks.

This journey to Vietnam represents an important milestone for Landing Law Offices in continually deepening its international footprint across Southeast Asia. By immersing itself in Vietnam's frontline market and liaising with leading local enterprises, financial institutions, medical platforms, and government authorities, Landing's Vietnam team has further bolstered its comprehensive capabilities in cross-border investment, outbound enterprise advisory, industrial collaboration, international financial center policy research, and project landing services between China and Vietnam.
