Nguyen Manh Tung, a young Vietnamese entrepreneur, said that the enforcement of the Vietnam - European Union Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) creates plenty of opportunity for businesses in the Czech Republic to explore and expand the market.

“Through the forum, young businesses like me can connect with their homeland businesses and find possibilities to develop and help Vietnamese brands to reach out to the Czech and European markets. We hope to contact Vietnamese businesses at home through the Vietnamese Embassy in the Czech Republic to exchange views and share experience in goods production and transportation as well as logistics services,.” Mr. Tung said.
