Objective: Source of Asia (SOA) partnered with Enviacon International, a German agricultural delegation, to facilitate their market entry into Vietnam. The goal was to establish strategic partnerships, showcase cutting-edge agricultural technologies, and foster sustainable farming collaborations between German and Vietnamese stakeholders.
Project Background
Vietnam’s agriculture sector is rapidly evolving, with increasing demand for sustainable farming solutions, smart agriculture technologies, and efficient livestock management. Recognizing this opportunity, Enviacon, a German delegation specializing in agricultural innovation, sought to expand into Vietnam.
However, entering a new market requires local expertise, industry connections, and cultural understanding—areas where Source of Asia (SOA) excels. SOA was tasked with organizing a high-impact networking event, facilitating B2B meetings, and ensuring a smooth market entry for Enviacon.

-
Showcasing German Innovation Effectively – Ensuring that Enviacon’s advanced agricultural solutions were presented in a way that resonated with Vietnamese partners.
