About CanCham
The Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam (CanCham Vietnam) is a non-governmental, non-profit business association that often works closely with government organizations and departments like the Canadian Trade Commission Service, the Consulate of Canada in Vietnam, the Ministry of Trade, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs etc. but has no direct links with the government.
The day-to-day operations at CanCham are managed by the Executive Director and office team. The team is supported by 9 volunteered Board Members who help shape the Chamber’s strategy and outlook. An Executive Board composed of a President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer is elected from within the Board to more directly oversee the Chamber operations.
There are many ways that CanCham regularly supports our members. How we support depends on the company’s objectives, which is why we work directly with our members to tailor our services to their needs. Some of our most commonly used services are Introductions & Referrals, Consultations, Networking opportunities, and Branding & Marketing.

Every international Canadian Chamber of Commerce is a bit different. What a Chamber prioritizes and how they support its members depends on the opportunities and challenges of the market, as well as stakeholder needs. At CanCham Vietnam, we recognize that every company is different and need tailored support in the market as well as finding opportunities in both countries Canada and Vietnam. Hence, we offer our services on a case by case basis, tailored to fit each enterprise’s goal and vision to thrive in the targeted market.
