Opening Panel Discussion: Market Outlook – Turning Vietnam into an Urban Powerhouse
Vietnam, as an example of the strengths and bright prospects across Southeast Asia’s economies, has an exciting future. Economic growth continues to gather pace, driven by a rebound in manufactured exports and tourism, and recovering consumption and business investment. This panel will explore the key drivers of this robust and promising outlook. It will look at how Vietnam can leverage regional cooperation to maintain this momentum, with a particular focus on the emerging opportunities for urban planners, designers, developers and investors. We will also identify the priorities to make Vietnamese cities examples of prosperous, inclusive and sustainable living.
