#Asia and the Pacific   #Viet Nam   #Strategic evaluations

The UNIDO portfolio in Vietnam is very comprehensive. The biggest share is in Business, Investment and Technology (BIT), not the least because of a full-size and longstanding business registration project. This theme is normally not a UNIDO core competence but, through its strong country presence, UNIDO managed to mobilize substantive funding and to be very effective in this area, which is highly relevant to Viet Nam’s current state of development.
