The conference was attended by Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh; Deputy Prime Ministers Tran Hong Ha, Ho Duc Phoc, Bui Thanh Son, Nguyen Chi Dung, Mai Van Chinh; and leaders of ministries, ministerial-level agencies, Vietnam Federation of Commerce and Industry, Vietnam Association of Small and Medium Enterprises. Intech Group was honored to join the conference with representatives of 150 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and 20 commercial banks.

Businessman Hoang Huu Thang and business representatives attended the conference.

At the conference, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh directed the Ministry of Finance and the Government Office to absorb comments to develop a directive on SME development, ensuring practicality, feasibility and suitability with the domestic and international economic context.

According to the Prime Minister, the global context is changing rapidly with economic polarization, multilateralism being challenged, digitalization and greening taking place strongly, while risks such as population aging, resource depletion, and climate change are becoming increasingly serious. This poses an urgent requirement: Vietnamese enterprises, especially SMEs, must adapt flexibly and take advantage of opportunities for sustainable development.

The Prime Minister emphasized that when the situation changes, the goals must also change. The Government sets an ambition to increase GDP growth by 8% or more by 2025 and reach double digits in the following years, aiming to achieve two 100-year goals according to the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress. To achieve this, not only the State sector, localities, FDI enterprises, but also all economic sectors, especially SMEs, must accelerate development, improve competitiveness and proactively innovate.

In addition, the Prime Minister emphasized four important pillars that enterprises need to comply with, including doing business according to the law, fulfilling social responsibilities, protecting the environment, caring for workers' lives and building a corporate culture with national identity. At the same time, the Government is committed to continuing to remove difficulties, especially institutional bottlenecks, because these are not only major barriers but also decisive factors for breakthroughs in economic reform.

We are well aware of our responsibilities, linking the interests of our businesses with the interests of the nation. This conference not only reinforces our trust but also creates a strong motivation for us to continue developing and contributing to the general prosperity of the country.'

Through the conference, the Prime Minister emphasized that the government always provides solutions to share with businesses in times of difficulty and is committed to accompany them in resolving obstacles, especially regarding institutional challenges that are seen as the 'bottleneck of bottlenecks' but also as the 'breakthrough of breakthroughs.' With the message 'The government does not say no, does not say it is difficult, does not say yes without taking action,' together we build the nation in a new era - an era of robust, civilized, prosperous, and happy growth,' Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh clarified: 'We must have policies that create conditions for small and medium enterprises to expand their scales, enhance competitiveness, improve production capacity, and develop business models based on innovation and the application of science and technology. Small and medium enterprises must also act decisively and strive to become larger businesses.' Intech Group is proud to be a part of this journey, continuing to innovate, create, and accompany the country on the path of strong development in the new era."
