The Most Authoritative and Important ICT Event in Vietnam
May 23, 2007
The Vietnam International Communications Summit & Expo - Vietnam Wireless & Vietnam IT (also known as "Vietnam Comm 07"), will be staged in Hanoi - Vietnam Exhibition and Fair Centre (VEFAC), from September 19-22, 2007. As the most authoritative and important ICT event in Vietnam, it is officially supported by the Ministry of Posts & Telematics (MPT) and jointly organized by Vietnam Posts & Telecommunications Group (VNPT), the largest and leading operator in Vietnam and Adsale Exhibition Services Ltd. With over 10 successful years of staging telecom exhibitions in Vietnam, the organizers are confident to shape Vietnam Comm 07 as an effective business platform bringing international ICT professionals to Vietnam blooming ICT market.

The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) listed Vietnam ICT market as one of the fastest growing markets in the world. Vietnam has a population of 84 million but only around 10% of the population possesses mobile phones. However, in the year of 2006, there was a 70% growth in total number of people possess mobile phones, showing the huge potential of Vietnam ICT market. According to VN Economic Times, both Internet and mobile phone network enjoy an annual growth of 150% - 200%, which is the 2nd fastest growth in the world. This illustrates why many international leading corporations, for example, Cisco System, Sun Microsystem, Alcatel, Samsung and Siemens, etc., are very positive to Vietnam ICT market. What's more, with Vietnam's entry to World Trade Organization (WTO) since January 2007, foreign investors are allowed to hold a maximum of 49% share of a joint venture company in the telecom industry. Overseas enterprises therefore can penetrate to Vietnam ICT market by forming joint venture with local enterprises, which will undoubtedly accelerate the development of Vietnam ICT market and connect to the international market more effectively.

Vietnam Comm 07 will be strategically staged in Hanoi, which is the ICT hub of the country and is where most of the operators based. With major decision makers and buyers of the industry attending, Vietnam Comm 07 is a definitive meeting place for top-notch ICT equipment and service providers and buyers, not only to explore infinite business opportunities, but also to share and exchange latest market information and technology through various tailor-made concurrent activities and summit.

With an exhibition area of 6,000 sq.m., the event attracted 182 exhibitors from 21 countries/regions and 18,208 trade visitors from Vietnam and Asia regions.
