Businesses Investing in Growth
Concept:
Businesses, international and local, can grow business in Vietnam by investing and working together.
Critical Operating Issues in Vietnam today:
- Local firms often lack the managerial, knowledge, background or experience to provide international standard products or services
- International firms have neither the independent resources or experience to do all the training necessary to help local firms achieve requisite standards.
- Local Government intervention is unlikely to satisfactorily address this issue in the near future.
Consequences:
- Continued low quality, low reliability; high frustration
- No or slow growth
- No or low profits for everyone
