Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 125 ratings
  • Insightful content

    As a Vietnamese living abroad, I found this podcast incredibly insightful with very original perspectives about Vietnam business growth. Just a minor recommendation: host’s voice sometimes is pretty low which is hard for listener to catch up.

  • My favorite podcast about Vietnam business and economy

    There’s not a lot of English content out there about Vietnam. Vietcetera covers it well, in particular about the economy and business.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

[Part 2] Emergency Podcast: If You Are Not Confused, You're Not Paying Attention | Michael Kokalari | EP 392
Q: What is the potential impact of El Niño on the Vietnamese economy, and how should businesses prepare?
El Niño could raise agricultural costs and fertilizer prices, disrupt supply chains, and push inflation higher; businesses should stock up on essential inputs, monitor commodity prices, and expect potential government support to stabilize prices in the second half of the year.
[Part 2] Emergency Podcast: If You Are Not Confused, You're Not Paying Attention | Michael Kokalari | EP 392
Q: What concrete steps could Vietnam take to strengthen energy security without stalling growth?
Vietnam could invest in refining capacity, build strategic oil reserves, and implement targeted subsidies or financing mechanisms (e.g., mortgage subsidies) to sustain construction and manufacturing activity while gradually expanding LNG and renewables infrastructure.
[Part 2] Emergency Podcast: If You Are Not Confused, You're Not Paying Attention | Michael Kokalari | EP 392
Q: Firstly, what is the concept of demand destruction, and why might it affect Vietnam differently from other regions?
Demand destruction refers to a reduction in oil consumption driven by higher prices or policy responses, which typically helps ease price pressure; in Vietnam, subsidies and price controls have dampened immediate demand destruction, but longer-term effects depend on energy policy and inflation dynamics.
15 Years In Vietnam: This Is How You Work With Vietnamese | Giovanni Zangani, Founder & Managing Partner, Maestro Equity Partners | EP 390
Q: Three founders, could you tell me more about their backgrounds?
He describes three young, high-energy founders from Canto who started a small paper shop, then built a noodle/instant noodle brand with strong online sales and rapid expansion. One became an actor, one worked in engineering, and the third stayed involved in the family business, with roles divided among front-facing, finance, and marketing.
Vietnam’s Export Innovation: How E-commerce Export is Rewriting the Global Playbook | Larry Hu, Amazon | EP 388
Q: What data trends support the shift toward export innovation and branding for Vietnamese businesses?
Larry cites brand registry growth, increased brand-led product sales, and a rising share of Vietnamese sellers reaching significant revenue thresholds as evidence that Vietnamese SMEs are moving from OEM-focused export to meaningful brand-driven presence in global markets.
