The primary goal of the conference is to showcase the province’s strengths and announce the list of investment projects according to the provincial Master Plan for the 2026-2030 period with a vision to 2050. These projects will focus on sectors aligned with the province’s development orientation, such as tourism services, urban trade, high-tech agriculture, processing industries, energy, technical infrastructure, and logistics.

By creating favorable conditions for enterprises to access these opportunities, Điện Biên aims to attract non-budget capital into high-potential fields to boost socio-economic growth and improve the province’s regional competitiveness and status.

During the meeting, delegates discussed the timing of the event and worked on a detailed script for each activity while assigning clear responsibilities to various units. The discussion also involved reviewing and selecting the list of projects intended for groundbreaking ceremonies or the granting of investment policy decisions.
