National Harbor, Maryland (USA) – This is more than just a diplomatic mission. Over 130 Vietnamese enterprises, led by Deputy Minister of Finance Cao Anh Tuan, made their presence felt at the SelectUSA Investment Summit 2025 with a clear message: Vietnam is not only an investment destination—it is emerging as a new global investor.
A Shifting Global Landscape and Vietnam’s Strategic Role
As the world enters a period of restructured global supply chains, the United States is actively seeking partners with real manufacturing capacity, transparency, and a commitment to sustainable development. Vietnamese enterprises—long recognized for their export strength—are now stepping up to play a new role: transforming from a “supporting factory” into a “visionary investor.”

The Embassy of Vietnam in the United States Welcomes Vietnamese Enterprises Participating in SelectUSA 2024
The Vietnamese delegation this year includes leading businesses from key sectors such as technology, renewable energy, manufacturing, smart agriculture, environmental solutions, logistics, and tourism. They are not simply looking for opportunities—they are bringing ideas, innovations, and long-term commitments.
It is no coincidence that SelectUSA—the largest investment forum hosted by the U.S. government—chose to create priority space for the Vietnamese delegation. Strategic meetings with key institutions like the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), U.S. Export-Import Bank (US Ex-Im Bank), and global corporations such as Intel and Meta are expected to trigger a new wave of investment, trade, and technology collaboration grounded in mutual benefit.
SelectUSA: A Global Stage for Ambition
Launched by the U.S. Department of Commerce, SelectUSA is more than an annual summit—it is where global investment strategies are shaped, capital flows are connected, and national credibility is tested.
With over $270 billion in investment facilitated and more than 240,000 jobs created since its inception, SelectUSA stands as a vivid testament to the appeal of the U.S. economy. In 2024, the summit attracted over 5,000 delegates from 96 economies, and Vietnam’s delegation—comprising more than 70 companies—ranked as the fifth-largest foreign business group, an unprecedented achievement.
From Presence to Long-Term Value Creation
Many Vietnamese companies attending SelectUSA have already established their initial footprints in the U.S. But this year marks a shift in mindset: the emphasis is no longer just on opening factories, but on contributing to local economies—through clean technologies, green manufacturing models, workforce development, and innovation partnerships.
Deputy Minister Cao Anh Tuan emphasized the principle of a "win-win" approach—economic cooperation not merely for growth, but for shared prosperity. The message from Vietnamese enterprises is clear: investing in the U.S. is a commitment to a responsible and sustainable partnership.
