Vietnam’s Start-Up Ecosystem – A Comprehensive Overview and Investment Opportunities

Vietnam has become a start-up powerhouse in Southeast Asia, attracting foreign investors from all over the world. With favorable government policies and foreign venture capital, the country currently is home to around 3,500 start-ups. This number steadily increasing due to an abundance of highly educated and motivated graduates who innovate, especially in digitalization, fintech, services, sustainability, and environmental protection.

Foreign investors find excellent opportunities to acquire not only innovation and talent from this growing pool but also chances to become an active part of the development itself through venture capital investment or acquisition.

On the other hand, Vietnam attracts more and more foreign start-ups who discover the country’s favorable and competitive conditions and talented workforce as an opportunity to outsource or grow their business idea away from their own home market.

Join Marco Foerster, Head of ASEAN Advisory at Dezan Shira & Associates, and Felix Suellwold, Co-Founder and CEO of CODE LEAP AG, a German start-up from Frankfurt with remarkable development in Vietnam and Linda Nguyen Schindler, Head of Ecosystem & Partnerships and Director of the AI Competence Center at German Entrepreneurship Asia to learn more about Vietnam’s unique start-up environment.

Key topics we will cover:

• Overview of Vietnam’s start-up ecosystem: Laws, organizations & institutions
• Ways to invest in a start-up in Vietnam for FDI
• Opportunities in the market for foreign start-ups
• A case study by CODE LEAP AG
