Review the record-breaking year for venture capital investment at Vietnam Innovation and Technology Investment Report 2021
According to the report, despite the impact of the global pandemic, 2021 is a year that marked the outstanding growth of venture capital in Vietnam, with total investments reaching $1.4 billion, 1.5 times higher than the previous record of $874 million in 2019. Additionally, the overall number of investment deals increased by 57% from 2020 to 165, the greatest number ever.
“Despite posing numerous challenges to the economy, COVID-19 has been a catalyst to promote innovation and digital transformation in Vietnam in the recent era. Digital technology has allowed many businesses to survive the financial crisis and has also enabled many companies to achieve tremendous growth.”, said Mr. Dong at the ceremony.
Investors are gradually moving their focus to industrial groupings that are less impacted by the pandemic to limit the effect on their investment decisions as a way to adapt to the pandemic. Also in 2021, Momo and Sky Mavis became two new technological unicorns in Vietnam as a result of customer demand for a high volume of digital goods and services.
The above facts and data demonstrate the potential for digital technology growth in Vietnam, and promise to give birth to many new unicorns in the near future.
