Not even the strong winds and rain of Typhoon Mindulle on 24 August 2010 could dampen the enthusiasm for economic discussion and collaboration at VEAM 2010.
The organizers of VEAM 2010 included the Foreign Trade University (Hanoi), Development and Policies Research Center (DEPOCEN), and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS).
Van Xuan University of Technology was the hosts of VEAM 2010, providing an excellent venue for the sharing of research knowledge and building Vietnam’s network of economists.
