Twenty-six firms of the Vietnam People’s Army are set to promote their products at the event, operating 50 booths showcasing economic goods. Another 42 Vietnamese enterprises from ministries, agencies and civilian sectors will participate with 62 booths. In addition, the fair will include 20 booths introducing products from Lao enterprises inside and outside the Lao People’s Army, of which Lao military enterprises will operate eight booths.

A Vietnam - Laos investment promotion conference is scheduled to take place on November 21.

To date, nearly 30 enterprises have registered to take part in the fair’s in-person and online business-matching sessions, whose number are expected to reach between 5-10 during the four-day course. After the fair concludes, the standing office of the organizing committee will continue supporting enterprises wishing to pursue further business connections.

Alongside the commercial activities, the organizing committee will coordinate with agencies, units and businesses to carry out a series of socio-political initiatives on the sidelines. These include donating computers and printers to units under the Lao ministry; presenting gifts to policy-beneficiary families at the opening ceremony; and giving gifts to Lao visitors throughout the fair.

There will also be a Vietnamese cultural space showcasing bilateral solidarity and friendship in their struggles for national liberation and their present-day development. Musical performances by both sides will take place at the opening ceremony and continue throughout the event.
