Episode 12: Navigating Vietnam’s Startup Boom: Culture, Capital, and Cross-Border Collaboration with Cuong Dang
Manage episode 500906863 series 3657058
Vietnam and Southeast Asia are fast becoming global hotspots for innovation and venture capital, but success in the region requires more than just money. In this episode of Inside CVC, Steve Schmith and Philipp Willigmann sit down with entrepreneur, investor, and community builder Cuong Dang to explore the realities of scaling startups and corporate ventures in one of the world’s most dynamic markets.
Cuong shares his journey from launching and exiting startups in the U.S. to leading Enterprise Holdings’ expansion into Vietnam, and now advising and investing in startups across Southeast Asia. He unpacks what international investors often get wrong about the region, why cultural context and trust matter as much as capital, and how his Vietnam Vanguard community is helping founders break through growth plateaus. The conversation dives into Vietnam’s most promising sectors—from logistics and supply chain to education and mobility—while offering practical advice for CVC leaders, corporates, and entrepreneurs navigating cross-border innovation.
