The Da Nang People's Committee is holding a seminar on e-commerce and digital payments at 8 a.m. on Thursday, October 22, 2026, at the Grand Tourane Hotel, 252 Võ Nguyên Giáp in An Hải ward, Báo Đà Nẵng reported on October 20.
The event is titled "Promoting e-commerce and digital payments: a driver of Da Nang's economic growth in 2026" (translated from Vietnamese). It is aimed at agencies, organisations and businesses, and the agenda covers developing the e-commerce ecosystem, digital transformation, AI and digital technology, digital payments, digital trust, business networking and market access. The city says the goals are to widen markets and improve competitiveness.
The invitation asked attendees to register through an online form before October 20, so anyone not yet signed up should contact the organisers before turning up. The report gives no attendance figure or budget.
Why it matters: The seminar comes two months before the city's December 7–9 cross-border e-commerce forum and as Da Nang discusses a crypto-asset sandbox for tourist payments. It is the city's pitch to local businesses to sell and take payment online.
