On November 15, 2023, the talk show “Golden Opportunities for Exporting Startups” took place at Harmony Saigon Hotel, co-organized by LNS International Corporation, CT Choice, and Ca Men Production & Trading Co., Ltd.
The global economy in 2023 faced many difficulties and challenges due to prolonged geopolitical conflicts. Although global inflation has cooled, it remains high, and central banks in many countries continue to pursue tight monetary policies, significantly impacting economic growth, investment, and consumption.
Many major economies, including some of Vietnam’s key trading partners, have slowed down in growth, with some even falling into recession. This has greatly affected the business operations of many companies, particularly in the import-export sector.
Additionally, in Vietnam, there are currently not many specific mechanisms or policies supporting startups, causing these businesses to struggle in finding outlets for their products.
Understanding the difficulties faced by startups, LNS International Corporation, CT Choice, and Ca Men co-organized the talk show “Golden Opportunities for Exporting Startups” with the hope of finding effective solutions to help startups overcome challenges.
According to Mrs. Jolie Nguyen (President of LNS International Corporation), the demand for Vietnamese cuisine among overseas Vietnamese is increasing, especially for regional specialties. The U.S. market is open and welcomes all businesses, including startups, as long as they comply with USDA and FDA regulations.
The talk show “Golden Opportunities for Exporting Startups” featured speakers and guests who have long been active in the import-export field, brand building, as well as startup entrepreneurs such as Mrs. Jolie Nguyen (President of LNS International Corporation, Co-founder of Global Maritime Services, CEO of Luong Nguyen Services Co., Ltd., CEO of Genki Japan House), economic expert Huynh Phuoc Nghia, CEO of Duy Anh Foods, and the Founder of Ca Men.
