Acting on Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh’s directive, the Government Office sent a dispatch to the leaders of several companies, including Vingroup, Sungroup, Geleximco, FPT, Masan Group, TH, THACO, Hoa Phat, REE, and Sovico, inviting them to a conference.

The conference, scheduled for 8 am on September 12, 2024, at the Government Headquarters, but temporarily postponed, aims to address challenges faced by private corporations, facilitate production and business activities, boost economic growth, maintain macroeconomic stability, and resolve issues pertaining to major projects.

Since the beginning of the year, businesses have encountered numerous difficulties due to the complex global economic situation, including escalating exchange rates, unresolved real estate entanglements, and subdued consumer demand in the post-COVID-19 era.

According to statistics from the General Statistics Office, in the first eight months of 2024, nearly 110,800 new enterprises were established nationwide, with a registered capital of VND994.7 trillion and a registered labor force of over 672,000 workers. These figures represent a 4.4% increase in the number of enterprises, a 0.7% rise in capital, and a 1.9% decrease in labor force compared to the same period in 2023.

Additionally, more than 57,300 businesses resumed operations (a 25.3% increase compared to the same period last year), bringing the total number of newly established and reactivated enterprises in the first eight months of 2024 to nearly 168,100, a 12.5% increase year-on-year.

However, the number of businesses that temporarily ceased operations increased by 15.3% year-on-year to over 82,800. Meanwhile, nearly 38,700 businesses temporarily halted activities while awaiting dissolution procedures, a decrease of 5.8%, and 13,300 businesses completed dissolution procedures, an increase of 18% compared to the same period last year.
