Nordic Alumni Day 2020 -“Work the Nordic Way”

October 31, 2020 @ 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM

VND150000

NordCham Vietnam is proud to introduce our new Nordic employer branding event Work the Nordic Way:

Our members have highlighted the need for elevating and communicating the strong Nordic employer brand in Vietnam. The Work the Nordic Way day will do just that with speakers and companies highlighting the key traits of Nordic work culture and work ethics. Together with the four Nordic alumni associations, which consist of Vietnamese who have studied in the Nordic countries, we will create a platform for connections and potential employment and business opportunities between Nordic companies and Vietnamese with strong bonds to the community.
