HÀ NỘI — An exhibition to promote and introduce potential and investment opportunities between Hà Nội and provinces in the north-central region is currently taking place in Đồng Hới City, Quảng Bình Province.

The exhibition, with the theme "Connecting for development together", runs until Monday and has been organised by the Hà Nội Promotion Centre on Investment, Trade and Tourism.

The event's aim is to introduce potentials, strengths, images, cooperation and investment promotions between Hà Nội and north-central provinces, especially Quảng Bình.

It also aims to support businesses to introduce products, connect and seek business cooperation opportunities, contribute to raising awareness and effectively implement the "Vietnamese people use Vietnamese products" campaign.

The exhibition introduces achievements, potentials, investment environment and tourist destinations in Hà Nội.

Typical handicraft products from traditional craft villages in Hà Nội are also on show to seek future cooperation with different provinces and cities.

Nguyễn Thị Mai Anh, deputy director of the Hà Nội Promotion Centre on Investment, Trade and Tourism, said that Hà Nội was particularly interested in calling for investment and looking for opportunities for craft village products and tourism.

The work aims to widely connect different provinces and cities across the country.

Thanks to this innovation, in the first six months this year, tourists to the capital city increased 2.5 times compared with the same period last year, she said.

The Hà Nội People's Committee hope to innovate quality and showcase a range of services to attract more and more tourists from all over the country to the capital city.

Hà Nội also simplifies procedures to call for domestic and international investors and ease enterprises’ difficulties to have more effective cooperation with partners. — VNS
