The Australian CEO Roundtable on Viet Nam was convened by Asia Society Australia, and hosted by RMIT University. It brought together The Hon Dan Tehan MP, Minister for Trade, Tourism & Investment with business, university and civil society leaders in Australia with experience and interest in the Vietnamese market to discuss practical ways where government, business and the university sector can work together in a 'Team Australia' approach to strengthen the economic relationship.

The CEO Roundtable on Viet Nam series is designed to bring together senior business leaders with government, academia and civil society to advance bilateral trade and investment links between Australia and Viet Nam. These high level roundtables discuss practical ideas to pursue trade and investment opportunities, while developing business-to-business connections, and professional relations between leaders. Each roundtable resulted in working papers and video case studies to inform and support business outcomes in Viet Nam. The Roundtable discussions build on the 2020 report A Path to Viet Nam: Opportunities and Market insights for Australian Business developed by Asia Society Australia and the Australian APEC Study Centre at RMIT University.

This series supports the aims of the Australian-Viet Nam Enhanced Economic Engagement Strategy (EEES), and is supported by Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade (DFAT) and Investment NSW, and by event hosts RMIT University, KPMG and the University of Queensland.
