The Japanese technology company Hioki has inaugurated its Vietnamese subsidiary, Hioki Electric Vietnam, at a ceremony in Hanoi last Friday (June 27).
This represents a milestone in Hioki’s strategy for global expansion and underlines the company’s commitment to helping Vietnam’s efforts to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. This is in line with the commitments Vietnam made at COP26, which have led them to pursue green transition policies with a particular focus on renewable energy, energy efficiency, and environmental technologies.
