VINASME organizes training program on risk control for sustainable business development amid uncertainty

DNHN - In the context of a rapidly changing economy, increasing competition, and accelerating digital transformation, risk management capability has become a critical factor determining the resilience and sustainable growth of businesses, particularly SMEs.

This was the central theme of the training program titled “Risk Control for Sustainable Development”, organized by the Vietnam Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (VINASME) on May 25, 2026. The event brought together representatives from government agencies, experts, universities, and 40 enterprises representing the SME community across the country.

The program was chaired by Dr. To Hoai Nam, Standing Vice President and Secretary General of VINASME, along with members of the Association’s Standing Committee, leaders of specialized departments, and affiliated units. The event was also attended by Ms. Vu Thi Thu Thuy, Head of the Statistical Survey Division under the Statistics Office, Ministry of Finance.

In his opening remarks, Dr. To Hoai Nam emphasized that in an increasingly volatile business environment, enterprises cannot focus solely on growth objectives. Instead, they must strengthen their internal governance capacity to enhance adaptability and resilience against market fluctuations.

He stated: “Sustainable development is not about growth at all costs. It is about growth built on effective governance and strong risk control capabilities. Businesses seeking long-term success must proactively establish comprehensive governance systems to improve their competitiveness.”

According to Dr. To Hoai Nam, VINASME not only serves as a bridge connecting the business community but also accompanies enterprises through training, consulting, and capacity-building initiatives to meet the requirements of a new development era.

A highlight of the program was the launch of the official website of the Enterprise Training & Consulting Center, a unit under VINASME. The digital platform is expected to serve as an important gateway, enabling businesses to access training programs, consulting services, knowledge-sharing resources, and the latest governance trends more efficiently.
