While 2020 will go down as one of the most grueling years in recent human history, there is positivity in Vietnam’s startup industry. In advance of the annual Saigon Startup Year-End Party on January 17, Saigoneer
sat down with some local VCs to look back at the Vietnamese startup scene in 2020, and how things are shaping up for 2021.
This stems from the country’s world-class handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, which allowed many people to carry on their business in a relatively normal fashion, in addition to spurring economic growth while most nations witnessed regression. At the start of the outbreak in Vietnam, however, it wasn’t clear which direction things would go in.
