USABC President and CEO Ted Osius took time from the meeting to share his appreciation for the potential of Vietnam's digital economy.
According to Osius, U.S. enterprises are paying attention to the Southeast Asian country's policies aimed at boosting the digital economy, digital infrastructure development, and metaverse and digital asset management regulations.
They are also keen on the country's priorities and targets for 2023 – the year of digital data, as well as how U.S. firms can join hands to help Vietnam achieve these targets, Osius added.
A representative of the Vietnamese Ministry of Information and Communications said Vietnam expects to conduct the digital transformation with three pillars—digital government, digital economy, and digital society.
The ministry admitted that Vietnam needs a new legal framework appropriate to the development of it's digital economy, in which U.S. firms can make contributions.
Lessons from successful digital transformation in other countries may not be successfully applied in Vietnam, so domestic firms can help localize solutions developed by U.S. enterprises.

At the working session with the USABC and representatives of Meta, Roblox, SpaceX, FedEx, UPS, Amazon Web Services, Boeing, and Apple, PM Chinh thanked them for accompanying Vietnam on it's digital transformation journey and wished all enterprises success in working with Vietnam.
"Your success is also our success," PM Chinh stressed.
He affirmed that the Vietnamese government is always willing to listen to U.S. firms' opinions and proposals.
Vietnam will continue to create favorable conditions for U.S. enterprises to expand their investment in Vietnam and pave the way for Vietnamese companies to take part in their value chains.
The prime minister also discussed Vietnam's development pillars, breakthrough strategies, and viewpoint on the foreign-invested sector.
In addition, he introduced specific sectors in Vietnam in which the USABC and U.S enterprises are interested, such as digital economy, creative industries, healthcare, energy, agriculture, and aviation.
He affirmed that Vietnam is willing to import machines, equipment, tools, and spare parts from the U.S. to balance Vietnam-U.S. trade.
Meta has high hopes for Vietnam
On Wednesday, Rafael Rrankel, Director of Public Policy for South and Southeast Asia at Meta, met with representatives from Vietnamese press agencies, including Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper.
