Boosting cooperation in high-tech industries is one of the objectives of the Vietnam - Russia partnership. In 2012, the Russian State Duma launched the project “Vietnam - Russia: new economies” to encourage bilateral high-tech cooperation. As part of this project, a delegation of Russian high-tech companies visited Vietnam on September 29th to look for business and technology exchange opportunities.
The delegation includes 5 Russian high-tech enterprises in the fields of healthcare, water purification, and infrastructure. Their aim is to introduce their best technology and products in Vietnam. Some enterprises are exploring the Vietnamese market, and some have already made detailed plans.
