About GEF 2025
After the strong momentum built by GEFE 2022, GEF 2023 and the success of GEFE 2024, the Green Economy Forum (GEF) returns in 2025 to bring together policymakers, business leaders, innovators, and sustainability advocates to shape the future of green growth in Vietnam.
With the theme “Shaping Changes, Building Futures”, GEF 2025 continues to feature rich conference discussions while introducing fresh content formats and a reimagined structure with:
- 9 conference sessions on key sustainability topics,
- 3 workshops on hands-on practices,
- 1 networking evening, and
- 1 keynote speaker.
As always, the forum remains a dynamic platform for connection and collaboration, where the public and private sectors converge to accelerate Vietnam’s green transition.
