Abstract:

The participation of Vietnam in the global electronics value chain (GEVC) is currently limited and influenced by many factors. This paper uses gravity model with pannel data of 6 countries including China, Hong Kong, Japan, US, South Korea and Vietnam in the period of 2007-2017 to assess the factors affecting Vietnam's participation in the global value chain of electronics. We focus on the current status and the ability of Vietnam to participate in different stages of GEVC, analyze the factors affecting Vietnam's participation in GEVC, and then propose recommendations to help promote the development of Vietnam's electronics industry in the global value chain (GVC).
