A forum on promoting the sustainable development of industrial parks (IPs) in Việt Nam takes place in Hà Nội on March 28 organised by the Diễn đàn doanh nghiệp (Business Forum) magazine.
Participants include representatives of the Ministry of Planning and Investment, Việt Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry, departments, management boards of economic zones and industrial parks, domestic and international organisations, business and industry associations and IP infrastructure investors, developers, experts and researchers.
The forum is expected to present initiatives and recommendations for sustainable development of Việt Nam's industrial parks in the future.
As of February 20, 2024, Việt Nam has 418 industrial parks, including 298 industrial parks under operation and 120 industrial parks under construction.
Industrial parks have become bright spots in attracting domestic and foreign investment, playing an important role in implementing the country's socio-economic development goals.
However, there is a number of limitations during developing the industrial parks, such as lack of synchronisation and connection, inefficient use of resources, and negative affects on the natural environment and the living environment of the residential community around the industrial parks.
Therefore, perfecting institutions and policies for industrial parks and economic zones to continue their important role in implementing socio-economic development goals is needed. — VNS
