Vietnam’s Gen Z may get all the attention but there’s another demographic with deep pockets and untapped potential. In this episode, Ian Paynton speaks with Lai Tien Manh, Managing Director of market research and branding agency MiBrand to uncover what global brands often miss when entering Vietnam. From the rise of local brands and the north–south cultural divide to the boom in digital payments and livestream commerce, Manh explains what’s changing fast — and what brands need to do to keep up. He also reveals why Vietnam’s over-60s, shaped by decades of war and quiet investment, may be the richest and most overlooked consumer group in the country. Whether you're building a product, planning a campaign, or just trying to make sense of Vietnam's shifting market — this episode is packed with insight.
