Recognizing the importance of strengthening the communication channels between SET and representatives of the foreign embassies, this forum aims to provide an opportunity for diplomatic communities to familiarize with the role of SET in attracting domestic and foreign investments and its promising investment opportunities, to enhance relationship as well as paving the way for future collaboration. This underscores SET's partnership platform to create business valuation for the capital market, the country and the society as a whole, in line with its vision "To Make the Capital Market 'Work' for Everyone".
