Gyeonggi Province Hosts Online Business Consultation on Healthcare Industry Entry into Vietnam to Expand Exports

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Park No-hun] Gyeonggi Province will hold the "2020 Healthcare Industry Vietnam Market Entry Online Business Consultation" from the 19th to the 23rd for five days at Suwon Convention Center.

The province said it prepared this event to support medical device manufacturers in the province facing export difficulties due to COVID-19 in expanding sales channels to New Southern Policy countries.

The province previously recruited medical device companies from the province to participate in consultation meetings in July and completed advance preparations through a needs survey of overseas companies' interested products.

A total of 23 companies will participate in the consultation, connecting with Vietnamese buyers organized by device type in one-on-one digital video consultation rooms specially arranged to discuss product explanations, purchase intentions, and future plans.

The province plans to actively support overseas market entry for medical device manufacturers in the province by hosting an online consultation meeting with Central Asian country buyers in November.

Kim Jae-hun, director of Gyeonggi Province's Health and Health Department, said, "We prepared this event to provide some assistance to small and medium-sized medical device manufacturers in the province facing economic difficulties in entering overseas markets," adding "We hope this consultation meeting in preparation for post-COVID will be of great help to participating companies."
