The 10th SelectUSA Investment Summit saw participation from the Vietnamese delegation, including representatives from the Ministry of Planning and Investment, the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and various large enterprises across healthcare, education, technology, manufacturing, and trade sectors.
Foreign direct investment has been a cornerstone of the U.S. economy since its founding. In 1983, President Ronald Reagan issued the “Statement on International Investment Policy,” declaring that international investment responsive to market forces is a vital and necessary component of a growing and stable global economy. Every president since has upheld this commitment to openness.
