Vietnam Global Innovation

Vietnam is one of the most dynamic emerging economies in Southeast Asia. Its robust economy is supported by strong domestic demand and an export-oriented manufacturing sector. It has a population of 100 million with 70% below the age of 35. It has an emerging middle class that stands at 13% and is expected to reach 26% within ten years.

A tech-savvy population coupled with a propensity to spend provides many opportunities and challenges to solve for tech startups expanding in the region.

Quest Ventures, with in-market government and angel networks in Vietnam, expects to invest in Vietnam in the next three years targeting post-seed to pre-Series B startups.

A proud partner of Global Innovation Alliance for Vietnam, Quest Ventures is conducting an acceleration program to position startups for success in Vietnam through mentorship, business matching, and support in navigating its business landscape.
