The event witnessed the attendance of nearly 300 participants
Speaking at the event, Dang Chung Thuy, representative of the Vietnam Embassy in Germany, indicated that Germany had been Vietnam’s leading commercial partner in the EU and that the latter had also strived to become the most significant commercial partner of Germany in Southeast Asia after over a decade of strategic cooperation.
Such achievements are embraced by the reckless efforts in connecting the governments of the two countries, as well as a strong desire of the business community within each nation. In practice, many large enterprises in Vietnam have been increasingly enthusiastic about partnering with the German and EU markets. A typical example is FLC Group – a proactive enterprise with significant contributions in tourism infrastructure, aviation, and real estate.

With regards to the decision of choosing Germany as the first destination for a series of international promotion activities in 2022, Trinh Van Quyet, chairman of FLC Group, emphasised that Germany has established itself as an extremely potential market following the residence of more than 200,000 Vietnamese people.
“Bamboo Airways has built a bridge that connects Vietnam with the largest airport in Germany. At the moment, Germany and Vietnam have the pandemic well under control, and policies for safe business resumption in place," said Quyet. The chairman also revealed that Bamboo Airways will expand its flight network to other major cities of Germany, and thereby turn the country into one of the most important markets of the airline in Europe.
