A chapter of Entrepreneurs’ Organisation, a global community that enables entrepreneurs to learn and grow, was launched in HCM City late last week.

HCM City is the financial hub of the fast-growing Vietnamese economy. Moreover, the Vietnamese Government set a target of 6.7 per cent GDP growth in 2016 and 6.8 per cent in 2017.

EO Viet Nam will serve to network a formidable array of entrepreneurs in the sectors of food & beverage, education, finance, corporate investment law,  IT consultancy and banking.

The chapter is charting a strategic growth plan for the next five years with the aim of bringing more entrepreneurs into the community.

Since 1987, the global network has had more than 12,000 business owners with 160 chapters in 50 countries.

At the launching ceremony, Harley Trung, co-founder of CoderSchool in HCM City, said that the city is a young, dynamic and vibrant city with many enterpreneurs.

EO will serve as a platform and a bridge to connect them with each other, he said. — VNS
