DPIIT hosts Vietnamese delegation for infra cooperation

The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) has hosted a delegation from Vietnam to promote bilateral cooperation in the infrastructure and logistics sector. The five-day visit of the delegation from July 31 to August 4 is a follow-up to an Indian delegation’s visit in March.

Around 80 participants, including Vietnamese delegates from various logistics and supply chain companies and associations, had fruitful discussions on both days, the DPIIT said. A direct shipping route between India and Vietnam is a potential area of interest for both sides, it said, adding, investment opportunities in industrial parks and greenfield industrial smart cities such as Dholera Special Investment Region can be explored by Vietnamese businesses.

On Day 1 of Vietnamese Delegation’s visit to India, G2B interactions were held with the Vietnamese delegation at DPIIT on July 31. The meeting was chaired by SIIT Rajesh Singh along with Special Secretary, Logistics Dept., DPIIT, Sumita Dawra and Additional Secretary Rajeev Thakur. Eighteen CEOs from various logistics industries in Vietnam participated.

Dang Vu Thanh Head of the Vietnamese Delegation and Vice Chairman of VLA in his opening remarks mentioned the logistics conference in Vietnam where the Indian Delegation headed by Special Secretary, Logistics, DPIIT, Sumita Dawra participated and discussed collaborations.

He discussed the growing market of Vietnam and how it is important to be part of the growth story of India. Collaborations and partnerships in the logistics sector can become base of our cooperation.
