Senior Commercial
Officer Stuart Schaag of the U.S. Embassy in Hanoi will be in
Clearwater on Thursday, June 30, to provide an overview of the Vietnam
market, including export opportunities for American companies.
Continued strong economic growth, ongoing reform and a large population
of 93 million—half of which are under the age of thirty—have combined
to create a dynamic and quickly evolving commercial environment in
Vietnam.
Telecommunications, information technology, oil and gas exploration,
power generation, transportation infrastructure construction,
environmental project management and technology, aviation and education
will continue to offer some of the most promising opportunities for
U.S. companies over the next few years as infrastructure needs continue
to expand with Vietnam’s pursuit of rapid economic development. Health
care will also be a growing sector as the government expands programs
and an increasingly wealthy population spends more on medical
treatment.
