Over the past three decades, Vietnam has undergone a significant structural transformation, evolving from an early-stage reform economy into an increasingly established investment market within the region. Economic growth has been accompanied by deeper global integration, sustained infrastructure development, and the continued expansion of the private sector. This evolution also brings into focus longer-term considerations around the quality of growth, governance standards, and the direction of Vietnam’s next phase of development.

From a long-term investment standpoint, Vietnam’s progress is evaluated not solely through capital inflows and growth metrics, but also through the expanding role of culture, tourism, and cuisine in shaping national positioning. At the same time, rapid growth presents structural challenges, including infrastructure capacity, income disparities, and corporate governance practices.

Join us as Dominic Scriven, Founder & Chairman of Dragon Capital Vietnam (DCVFM) — one of the longest-standing foreign investment firms in Vietnam — shares perspectives shaped by more than three decades of active market engagement. Having been present since the early 1990s, he offers a pragmatic and informed view on investment, governance, and long-term economic development across key stages of Vietnam’s transformation.
