The Ho Chi Minh City Business Association (HUBA) has undergone a strategic reorganization, rebranding itself as the Ho Chi Minh City Business Federation following its first delegate congress for the 2026-2031 term. This transition is intended to expand the organization’s representative scope and strengthen ties between industry associations, clubs, and the wider business community. Under the new structure, the Federation aims to move beyond merely reporting business difficulties to authorities. Instead, it intends to actively participate in policy creation and implementation by transforming business feedback into actionable data to assist the government in designing effective regulations and reducing operational costs. Mai Huu Tin, founder of U&I Investment JSC and a former member of the National Assembly, has been elected as the new Chairman of the Federation. The newly established Executive Board consists of 93 members, supported by a 7-member Inspection Committee. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-29: Mai Huu Tin elected President of Ho Chi Minh City Business Association Mai Huu Tin has been elected President of the Ho Chi Minh City Business Association (HUBA) for the 2026-2031 term, bringing extensive experience in multi-sector business and international sports leadership. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mai-huu-tin-elected-president-of-ho-chi-minh-city-business-association ### 2026-08-28: Ho Chi Minh City Business Association rebrands as Federation The Ho Chi Minh City Business Association has rebranded as the Ho Chi Minh City Business Federation, electing Mai Huu Tin as Chairman for the 2026-2031 term to enhance policy advocacy and economic support. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ho-chi-minh-city-business-association-rebrands-as-federation --- Cite as: Ho Chi Minh City Business Association rebranding.
