Opportunity to participate in the new generation industrial supply chain

(HTV) - The NextGen ISCO Forum within the framework of HoChiMinh City Business Summit 2025 in Ho Chi Minh City opens up opportunities for businesses to participate in the new generation supply chain, aiming for green transformation, sustainable development and improved competitiveness.

Within the framework of the HoChiMinh City Business Summit 2025 taking place in Ho Chi Minh City, the NextGen ISCO Forum was held. This year, many businesses and consultants on FDI attraction discussed the topic: " Unlocking opportunities to participate in the new generation supply chain ".

Within the framework of HoChiMinh City Business Summit 2025 taking place in Ho Chi Minh City, the NextGen ISCO Forum was held.

The new Ho Chi Minh City currently has 59 export processing zones and industrial parks with more than 5,500 active projects, employing about 905,000 workers in the first 6 months of 2025, an increase of nearly 17,000 people compared to the end of 2024. After the merger, the city integrates industry, urban areas and seaports, which is considered a rare opportunity to restructure the role in the national production ecosystem, but also poses a big challenge in industrial restructuring.

Mr. Dang Tan Duc - Director of the Institute of Research and Development, Becamex Group said: "In the past three decades, most production activities have relied mainly on the advantage of land and cheap labor, but this advantage is increasingly declining. We must build a foundation to support industrial transformation to capital-, skill- and knowledge-intensive industries."

Investing in green transformation and sustainable development

According to experts, in the restructuring task, the top priority that businesses need to pay attention to is investing in green transformation and sustainable development, thereby improving competitiveness.

To access green credit, businesses must meet requirements on sustainable development, green transformation and emission reduction.

Mr. Dang Viet Dung - General Director of Nano Technologies Vietnam said that many businesses have applied digital technology to management, from online timekeeping to analyzing human resource needs, helping to optimize operating processes.

From another perspective, Ms. Vo Hiep Van An - Deputy General Director of Deloitte Vietnam emphasized: "To access green credit, businesses must meet the requirements of sustainable development, green transformation and emission reduction. This is an urgent condition that needs to be given top priority."

Connect to enhance the position of Vietnamese enterprises

Not only stopping at green and digital orientation, the forum also opens up opportunities for direct contact between businesses, promoting digital transformation, especially in small and medium enterprises.

Mr. Nguyen Cong Tan - Vice President of Ho Chi Minh City Young Entrepreneurs Association - Head of the Steering Committee of NextGen ISCO Forum 2025 commented: "When businesses connect and coordinate with investors and businesses in industrial parks, we will form a supply chain from supporting industries to services. This not only helps to enhance the position of Vietnamese businesses but also creates peace of mind for FDI investors when continuing to invest in Vietnam".

According to experts, in the period 2025 - 2030, if the current speed of industrial park development is maintained, Ho Chi Minh City can attract an additional 30 - 40 billion USD of FDI capital, mainly in the fields of high technology, manufacturing and logistics, moving towards forming a world-class megacity in the future.
