Vietsol Attends the 2026 SelectUSA Investment Summit

The U.S. automotive industry is undergoing one of its most significant structural shifts in decades. Reshoring, electrification, and renewed manufacturing investment are redrawing the map of where opportunity exists. For companies in the automotive supply chain, the question is no longer whether to engage with the U.S. market, but how and when. The 2026 SelectUSA Investment Summit – America’s Largest Foreign Investment Event is where that conversation takes place.

Vietsol officially participated in the Summit. This is a strategic move as Vietsol deepens our focus on the U.S. automotive market, seeking to build meaningful connections with economic development organizations, strategic partners, and international investors already operating within the American landscape.

SelectUSA 2026 – The Gateway to Investing in the U.S. Market

For international companies serious about the U.S. market, access is everything – access to the right institutions, the right people, and the intelligence needed to make informed investment decisions. The 2026 SelectUSA Investment Summit is one of the few events built specifically for that purpose.

This year’s edition expects more than 5,500 participants from over 100 countries, including EDO representatives from 54 U.S. states and territories and over 2,700 business investors. U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick will open the Summit, with main stage panels addressing “Future Ready: Trends Reshaping Business and Society” and “Made in America 2.0: The Manufacturing Renaissance”, both of direct relevance to companies in the automotive supply chain. The program also coincides with America’s 250th anniversary, a moment the Summit will use to reaffirm the United States’ position as the world’s premier investment destination.

What that translates to, in practice, is a four-day window of concentrated opportunity. Attendees can explore an Exhibition Hall featuring hundreds of EDOs, service providers, and industry experts; connect with representatives from 50+ states and territories, companies from 100+ countries, and senior government officials to advance investment deals; attend over 100 expert-led sessions covering actionable guidance on incentive structures, regulatory frameworks, and workforce development; and build long-term partnerships with industry players across the United States.

Few events compress this level of access into a single venue. For automotive supply chain companies, the Summit is not a conference to attend – it is a market entry opportunity to act on.

Vietsol’s Strategic Agenda at SelectUSA 2026

Vietsol was represented at the Summit by three members of the executive leadership team: Mr. Nguyen Quoc Tuan (CEO), who led high-level strategic conversations and engagement with government officials; Mrs. Luna (CGO), who focused on building Vietsol’s commercial network and identifying growth partnerships across U.S. markets; and Mrs. Celine (CFO), who evaluated investment feasibility, state-level incentive programs, and financial partnership opportunities.

The SelectUSA Investment Summit confirmed what Vietsol already understood: the U.S. market is not a future consideration – it is an immediate priority. As a high-profile platform for foreign direct investment, the Summit brought together the exact profile of stakeholders that matter most to Vietsol’s U.S. strategy: economic development organizations, government officials, and investors actively looking to build partnerships in the automotive supply chain.

Over four days in National Harbor, our leadership team engaged in substantive conversations with EDO representatives, automotive industry players, and international investors. These conversations went beyond initial introductions, covering partnership structures, market entry pathways, and opportunities for long-term collaboration.
