The way forward o Deputy Prime Minister-Minister of Foreign Affairs visited Spain 23 -24/5/2017, attended a Vietnam-Spain Business Forum which was organized in Madrid with the participation of over 100 businessmen and enterprises of the two countries. The two sides exchanged opportunities for cooperation in a number of potential areas such as infrastructure, renewable energy, agroprocessing, waste treatment, tourism, etc. These sectors are the ones that Spanish companies have many advantages and Vietnam are in the need of cooperation. o Bilateral cooperation: set to inaugurate by end of 2017 Joint Commission on Economic cooperation o Target set for 2020: 5 bn USD of two-way trade volume (now standing at around 3 bn USD)

Conclusion o The potential of bilateral economic cooperation is very big in coming years, especially when the FTA Vietnam-EU come into force (hopefully by 2018). o Vietnam offers trade and investment opportunities for Spanish companies in areas including infrastructures, high-tech agriculture, renewable energy, waste management and water treatment.
