AusCham Virtual Sundowners – August 2021

AusCham August 2021 Sundowners Goes Virtual. The days of restrictions are familiar in a COVID-19 era of social distancing and lockdowns; people are experiencing isolation related anxiety and potential health side effects; with this in mind, AusCham is moving the monthly Sundowners networking event to a Virtual Platform using ZOOM for people to connect from virtually anywhere on the globe but with a focus on the major cities in Vietnam being Ha Noi, HCMC and Da Nang. The Sundowners August edition will follow the same format as other Sundowners events held over the past 23 years of the Australian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam. An AusCham virtual Sundowners means your health, which is paramount is protected – stay at home, stay in the office, there is no need to book a taxi or Grab and no drama finding a car park or contending with traffic if it’s raining – so now you have no excuse not to attend. We hope to see you at our virtual Sundowners at 6:00 pm on Thursday 5th August 2021. The night will have MC’s, guest speakers, prize giveaways, new member updates, event updates and news items – this will be totally interactive by way of questions to the MC’s.
