Ten companies from the province participated in the information and communications technology, artificial intelligence, cosmetics and beauty devices, food, and raw materials and components sectors.
Gangwon Techno Park and the participating institutions identified local buyers in advance and connected them with companies based on each company’s product characteristics and demand in the Vietnamese market. At the consultation session held on August 28 at the Eastin Grand Hotel Saigon, 26 local buyers took part in one-on-one consultations. A total of 62 consultations generated $8,227,000 in export consultation value, $4,602,000 in prospective contracts, $505,000 in on-site contracts, and 10 intercompany memoranda of understanding.


The Vietnam Association of Small and Medium Enterprises, the Gangwon State Vietnam Office, and the KOTRA Ho Chi Minh Trade Office also attended the consultation session. They discussed cooperation measures needed for market entry, including local certification, licensing, and distribution networks.
The joint delegation also achieved 25 memoranda of understanding and $10,220 in on-site sales through the expo’s official exhibition and consultation programs. New Land All Nature, IoTED, and It’s the Home were selected as outstanding innovative companies and received the Best Innovation Award.
Gangwon Techno Park plans to continuously monitor buyer consultations and contract negotiations so that the consultation results lead to actual exports. It will also link participating companies with follow-up support, including certification, licensing, and the establishment of local distribution networks. The organization will use its Gangwon Techno Park Vietnam online exhibition hall to promote participating companies’ products year-round and support follow-up matching with buyers.
