The day 29.8.2020 marked an important milestone, when we launched VPF – the community for professional Vietnamese fellows working in Finland to connect, make friends, share stories and learn from one another. The launch was associated with VPF’s first speed networking event with memorable stories shared by some of our core team members, the three exciting break-out sessions for the participants to get to know one another in small groups, and the promising discussion about VPF vision, mission and its plan ahead.

“This is a meaningful event where we as Vietnamese professionals in Finland could join and hear about one another. It’s a very good chance for us to know more about Vietnamese people in the community and would be a good start for the working relationship in future.”

Since the launch, we have seen a great deal of discussions and connections within the VPF community sparked by the event. That is just what we hoped for when we started association!

The event meaningfully confirms our assumption that there is a strong need among Vietnamese fellows for a community that will benefit both their professional and personal growth.

We are thrilled and grateful to get your warm and supportive words after the event to further improve our upcoming activities.

The future is bright and full of opportunities to learn and grow, so let’s do that together with VPF. See you at our next event!

“Highly recommend to those interested in networking with Vietnamese professionals because the attendants are all very active and aim at building a common forum together”

“[VPF] is a platform that has never existed before for Vietnamese students so it is a great way to stay connected and supported by the community”

“Good to know and connect with people. [There is] a lot of potential to grow and network.”
