The opening speech of Mr. Abraham Nguyen Quang Huy clearly defined the main idea of the forum: “GIFPP is not just an investment promotion event, but a global movement where technology, innovation and social responsibility converge to solve urgent challenges such as climate change, poverty, inequality and health crises.”
He called on the investor and business community to shift from a short-term profit model to a socially responsible investment model, prioritizing the fields of AI, Blockchain, Fintech, renewable energy, education, health – focusing on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This, according to him, will empower Gen Z in building a sustainable future.
The GIFPP Forum has left a strong mark: from the statement of socially responsible investment policies, to specific cooperation commitments and the launch of the Global Innovation Alliance model.
With the motto “Investing for people and the planet”, GIFPP has affirmed that, when putting social responsibility alongside financial profits, the event can become a model for Vietnam to replicate in future forums. This is not only a step forward in international cooperation but also the beginning of the country’s sustainable development journey.
GIFPP launched the Global Economic Alliance 9S UNION, with the goal of connecting international investors, startups and businesses in an open ecosystem, supporting innovative initiatives for sustainable development. Also at the forum, 12 Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) were signed with the participation of 12 countries and investment organizations, focusing on implementing 10 key projects in ASEAN countries, UAE, Africa and Europe, aiming to solve social issues such as education, healthcare, green energy and technology.
