Spanning over 15,000 sq.m, the event brings together nearly 200 companies from 17 countries and territories, highlighting Vietnam’s growing role in the global mining and construction supply chain.

International pavilions from countries such as the Czech Republic, Malaysia, India, China, and the Netherlands are showcasing a wide range of advanced technological solutions, reflecting global trends toward digitalisation, automation, and sustainability.

The three-day exhibition focuses on modern mining equipment, mineral processing technologies, sustainable infrastructure solutions, and applications of automation and digital transformation in operations.

A series of in-depth workshops will also be held, covering topics such as sustainable mining, digital transformation in the industry, environmental management, and green development in construction.

The event gathers major domestic and international brands such as XCMG, LiuGong, Sunward, Shell, Weir Minerals, and Yokogawa, thereby opening up opportunities for cooperation, technology transfer, and capacity building for Vietnamese businesses.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Phan Xuan Thuy, deputy general director of the Vietnam National Coal and Mineral Industries Group (TKV), emphasised that the exhibition provides a good chance for businesses to access new technological trends such as artificial intelligence, and automation.

Amid the global shift toward greener and more digital mining models, TKV is prioritising the application of technology across its entire value chain. The group aims to develop smart mines and factories while enhancing energy efficiency, reducing emissions, and expanding international cooperation.

Wong Chiang Tat, general director of Informa Markets Vietnam, the event organiser, said that the exhibition serves as a strategic platform to promote innovation and international collaboration. With rising demand for coal, minerals, construction materials, and energy driven by urbanisation and industrialization, the event is expected to enhance productivity, competitiveness, and sustainable development across the industry.

With its large scale and the participation of many reputable businesses and organisations, Mining & Construction Vietnam 2026 is expected to provide fresh momentum for Vietnam’s mining and construction sectors, supporting their transition toward modernisation, sustainability, and deeper integration into the global value chain.
