During his stay, Chinh had a working session with Mayor of Le Havre city Edouard Philippe who visited Vietnam in 2018 in his capacity as French Prime Minister and visited the central city in 2023.

At this meeting, the two sides discussed cooperation potential and priorities between the two cities.

The Da Nang delegation also made field trips to Le Havre Port, and Siemens Gamesa, New Port 2000 and GMP wharves to learn about seaport infrastructure, maritime logistics activities, and potential cooperation with the French city.

In Paris, the delegation had working sessions with the Vietnamese Embassy on the prospect of promoting locality-to-locality cooperation with France, and leaders of Ubisoft Entertainment SA - a French video game publisher headquartered in Saint-Mandé with development studios across the world - on its current investment projects in Da Nang.

At the meeting, Ubisoft proposed Da Nang support it to rent office at the city's Software Technology Park II.

Ubisoft has invested in Da Nang since February 2020 and is focusing on developing mobile games.
