Additionally, the success stories of winners of the R2E program in 2023, Mrs. Van Loan from Real Bean Coffee and Ms. Lan TTN from AnTo Tea, served as a strong inspiration for these entrepreneurs to pursue their exporting journeys. Moreover, attendees had the opportunity to expand their connections, opening doors to potential collaborations. 🧡 A huge thank you to all participants and speakers, including Mrs. Fleur Goote, DBAV’s Executive Director, and Ms. Diep- Hoang Hong, DBAV’s Vice Chair, for contributing to this inspiring and valuable event.
