Webinar Green Hydrogen Hub Meets City Partnership: Exploring German-Vietnamese Business Opportunities

Germany and Vietnam are both ramping up their commitments to green hydrogen as a key element of the energy transition. With Vietnam’s growing industrial potential and Germany’s role as a global hydrogen technology hub, there is a strong case for closer collaboration across the hydrogen value chain.

 

This webinar brings together stakeholders from both countries to explore emerging opportunities in green hydrogen, framed by the city partnership between Leipzig and Ho Chi Minh City and supported by the Delegation of German Industry and Commerce in Vietnam (AHK Vietnam) and GIZ's Energy Support Programme.

 

Participants will gain insights into:

  • Current market developments in Vietnam and Germany
  • The role of hydrogen in industry, trade, and city cooperation
  • Practical company use cases from both countries
  • Thematic breakout sessions on bankability, safety, H2Global, and R&D

 

Whether you are an international technology provider, a Vietnamese industrial player, a research institute, or an investor, this event offers valuable insights and networking opportunities.

 

Do not miss your chance to connect with future partners and help shape the German-Vietnamese hydrogen corridor!
