The Investor opened a new north-central Vietnam office in Nghe An province on Sunday to replace its regional office in nearby Ha Tinh province.

The new office is located on the 6th floor of the Tri Duong Complex Building at 139 Pham Dinh Toai street in Vinh town, the capital of Nghe An.

Over the years, Nhadautu.vn and The Investor.vn have been constantly developing as a professional and in-depth business publications serving the business circle and investors, both international and domestic.

The Investor set up the north-central Vietnam office in 2018 in Ha Tinh province with approval from its parent organization, the Vietnam Association of Foreign-Invested Enterprises (VAFIE), and the office covered provinces from Thanh Hoa to Quang Tri.

The Politburo's Resolution No. 26 dated July 30, 2013 outlined that Nghe An will become an industrial province and a hub of the north-central region in terms of finance, trade, tourism, education, training, science, technology, health, culture, sports, and high technology.

At a recent Politburo meeting held to review 10 years of implementing Resolution 26, the Party’s premier decision-making body issued a new resolution for the province’s development till 2030, with a vision to 2045.

The new resolution continues to outline Nghe An as a regional hub in terms of commerce, logistics, healthcare, education, training, science, technology, industry and high-tech agriculture. It features Nghe An as one of the driving forces for development in the region.

Nghe An’s economy scale currently ranks 12th in Vietnam, and it is one of the top 10 provinces and cities in terms of FDI attraction.

Therefore, in order to meet Nha dau tu and The Investor’s growth targets, the regional office has been relocated to Nghe An, hometown of President Ho Chi Minh, the founding father of present-day Vietnam. This decision has been approved by the province’s Department of Information and Communications.

Currently, The Investor has four regional offices in the south, the north-central region, the south-central and Central Highlands region, and the northeastern region.

Dr. Nguyen Anh Tuan, Editor-in-Chief, said that based on the VAFIE's instructions and its media entity's 2020-2025 development orientations, the publications Nha dau tu in Vietnamese and The Investor in English have been strengthening its organizational structure and personnel to meet the requirements of a professional media organization specialized in investment and business issues across the country.

Journalist Tran Quyet Thang was named chief of the north-central region’s office, and journalist Nguyen Van Dung deputy chief.

Dr. Tuan said the new office has been tasked with covering investment and business activities in Nghe An and other regional provinces, promoting investment potential and opportunities, success stories, and lessons learned in investment and business.

“Therefore, the office must work closely with companies and investors,” he said. Tuan added the office has to build and develop ties with local administrations to accomplish its duties.
