International media accounted for 80% of total media presence, further amplifying the visibility of Vietnam\u2019s aquaculture industry on the global stage.<\/p>\n The event also welcomed multiple international delegations, with representatives, businesses, and industry experts from across the region, including Cambodia, the Philippines, India, and South Korea, attending to explore emerging trends, advanced technologies, and potential collaboration opportunities within the aquaculture sector.<\/p>\n The bus-in programme was another highlight, supporting 1.713<\/strong> group visit from the Mekong Delta to attend the exhibition. This initiative underscores a continued long-term commitment to inclusivity development, enabling key aquaculture communities to directly access new technologies, connect with industry players, and strengthen their production capabilities.<\/p>\n Sharing the same perspective, Mr. Le Viet Binh \u2013 Deputy Chief of Office of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment<\/em>, expressed his expectations:<\/p>\n \u201cI believe that the exhibition will be elevated in scale, professionalism, and international reach, thereby creating more opportunities for connection, collaboration, and technology transfer for Vietnam\u2019s aquaculture industry.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n With a diverse showcase, the exhibition offered a comprehensive view of the industry\u2019s value chain, from advanced farming technologies and nutrition solutions to disease management, environmental treatment, and supporting services including logistics.
