Webinar: Recover and Recycle: Dutch water technology for Vietnam

The Netherlands is Vietnam’s key partner to address and co-create solutions for water and climate change. We assist in transforming challenges into opportunities. Sound water management is about quantities and qualities: not too much, not too little, and not too dirty or salty. To achieve this in times of climate change we inspire Vietnamese stakeholders with the Dutch integrated and adaptive approach as well as with innovative technologies for the circular economy. 

Dutch companies and investors are looking for opportunities to provide their solutions to Vietnam and to make a profitable business case at the same time so that the relations will be sustained over time. The Dutch companies have a solid reputation and take responsible business conduct seriously. The added value and efficiency gains of Dutch knowledge and technology are so big that the mutual economic benefits are the key driver of sustainable cooperation and trade.

Within this context of these cooperations, the Netherlands Embassy in Hanoi, Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City, and the Dutch Business Association Vietnam co-organize a webinar on water treatment.

🎯The webinar aims at the following objectives:

• Promote and update/highlight on Dutch water activities in 2021 and for 2022
• Identify demand for Dutch products/services in Vietnam
• Present to Vietnamese entrepreneurs, academic, and officials the solutions that Dutch entrepreneurs can provide
• Promote Dutch water sector and provide some participants the opportunity to seek business partners
