[English below] 🎥 "Ngọn hải đăng EVFTA" - ý tưởng nảy sinh trong giai đoạn rất nhiều doanh nghiệp đang gặp khó khăn và các hoạt động kinh doanh bị trì hoãn do Covid-19. Nhận thấy nhiều doanh nghiệp Việt có tầm nhìn đang tận dụng thời điểm ngưng trệ do đại dịch để trang bị kiến thức, chuẩn bị nhà xưởng tiêu chuẩn để vươn ra xa hơn khi tái khởi động, Viện FNF và các đối tác đã thực hiện dự án "Ngọn hải đăng EVFTA", giúp một số SMEs của Việt Nam tháo gỡ các khó khăn, tìm hiểu thị trường để sẵn sàng xuất khẩu nông sản chất lượng cao của Việt Nam sang Châu Âu. Đặc biệt, dự án hỗ trợ các công ty tận dụng các ưu đãi thuế quan từ Hiệp định Thương mại Tự do EU-VN, có hiệu lực từ tháng 8/2020. Dự án #EVFTALighthouse của Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) là một mô hình được đánh giá cao bởi các đơn vị xúc tiến thương mại của Châu Âu tại Việt Nam. ---------------------- 🎞 The video is a summary of EVFTA Lighthouse Project, an initiative from the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) Vietnam. The project aims to create good examples of a few Small and Medium Enterprises taking advantage of the EU - Vietnam Free Trade Agreement to bring Vietnamese quality products to the European market. The model of creating successful businesses thanks to EVFTA is highly appreciated by the European trade promotion units in Vietnam. #FNFproject
