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.
