Vietnam Faculty Development in International Business (FDIB)

Overview

This FDIB program will focus on the unique aspects of doing business in Vietnam, comparing and contrasting the business environments of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and Hanoi. Each city will begin with background briefings from U.S. commercial attaches, followed by site visits to a range of organizations. These visits may include organizations in the manufacturing, professional services, retail, food-processing, education, healthcare, and micro-finance sectors. Ho Chi Minh City will emphasize the rapidly growing SMEs and MNE outsourcing, while Hanoi will emphasize the transition of state-owned enterprises.

Please visit the FDIB Web site for complete details.
