SPHACY at the BRICS 2024 Urban Economic Forum
29 November 2024
On November 21, 2024, Mr. Vũ Văn Thành, CEO of SPHACY, had the honor of participating in the BRICS 2024 Urban Economic Forum in Saint Petersburg, Russia, as part of a delegation. The event provided a golden opportunity for Vietnamese businesses to connect, seek partnerships, and expand their operations in BRICS markets.
BRICS 2024 Economic Forum: A Bridge to Global Economic Integration
The BRICS Urban Economic Forum is an annual event organized by the Saint Petersburg authorities since 2019, aiming to create new business communication channels, attract investment, and expand international cooperation. This year, the forum attracted over 3,500 participants from 57 countries, including government representatives, businesses, leading experts, and academics from BRICS nations and global partners.
The plenary session, held at the Presidential Library—a cultural landmark of Saint Petersburg—was the highlight of the forum. It served as a platform for leaders, experts, and businesses to discuss strategies for economic cooperation, innovation, urban development, and sustainable solutions for emerging markets.
During the plenary session, the presidium included the organizing committee and delegation heads from various participating nations. Notably, the head of the Vietnamese delegation, Dr. Nguyễn Hồng Sơn, former member of the National Assembly’s Foreign Affairs Committee, not only co-chaired the session but also delivered an impressive welcome speech, reinforcing Vietnam’s position in the region and on the global stage.
In his speech, Dr. Nguyễn Hồng Sơn expressed his honor at being invited by the Foreign Affairs Committee of Saint Petersburg to participate in the BRICS 2024 Urban Economic Forum. He emphasized: “This event is not only an opportunity to connect cities and businesses but also a foundation for us to collaboratively build a sustainable, prosperous, and peaceful future.”. Dr. Nguyễn also skillfully tied the forum’s theme to Vietnam’s multilateral diplomatic strategy, especially in light of Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính’s attendance at the BRICS Leaders’ Summit in Kazan in October 2024. He highlighted that this series of events not only opens up extensive economic cooperation opportunities with Russia and BRICS countries but also reaffirms Vietnam’s commitment to fostering strong economic, political, and diplomatic relationships with partner nations worldwide.
