The events are organised by the VDMA Textile Machinery Association and supported by Vietnam Textile & Apparel Association (VITAS), China Textile & Apparel (CTA, Adsale) and Becker Travel Co.

The conferences will be held at Sheraton Hanoi Hotel and the Sheraton Saigon Hotel & Towers. The networking during the events will be supported by B2B-matchmaking (pre-arranged or spontaneous bilateral meetings in a separate meeting area including a table-top exhibition) and by a conference dinner in a relaxed atmosphere.

Interested decision makers from textile manufacturers in Vietnam are welcome to register via www.germantech-vietnamesetextile.de for the company presentations and arrange meetings with the German companies and their agents.

During Saigontex, a conference leaflet will be distributed by VDMA’s partners.
