Hanoi (VNS/VNA) - The Vietnam Elevator Expo is set to return for its fourth edition in Ho Chi Minh City.
Under the theme "Elevators – The Rhythm of Modern Architecture", the event, jointly organised by the Vietnam Elevator Association (VNEA) and VINEXAD under the Ministry of Industry and Trade, runs from December 4 to 6 at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Centre (SECC), with participation from more than 120 exhibitors representing over 10 countries and territories.
The event will feature 150 booths and attract over 15,000 professional visitors, reflecting a nearly 30% growth from last year’s edition, which hosted 100 companies and 14,000 visitors. It continues to strengthen supply chain links, promote technology, and boost Vietnam’s global competitiveness in the elevator industry.

Delegations from India, the Republic of Korea, Japan, China, ASEAN countries and Europe will participate in a targeted international business networking programme.
