On August 16, Kirin Capital held a meeting with Do Ventures to discuss a collaboration aimed at promoting entrepreneurship and innovation in Vietnam, with a particular focus on emerging technology companies.
Do Ventures is an early-stage venture capital fund co-founded by Mr. Nguyen Manh Dung (Shark Dũng) and Ms. Le Hoang Uyen Vy. The fund focuses on technology companies in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, acting as a strategic partner for both startups and investors.
During the meeting, Do Ventures and Kirin Capital engaged in in-depth discussions on Vietnam’s startup and innovation ecosystem, with a focus on technology startups.
In relatively nascent sectors, instead of investing in already successful businesses, Do Ventures seeks out outstanding founders and helps them build new business models that address urgent market needs. The fund typically invests at the seed stage to identify high-potential startups. For companies demonstrating effective operations, Do Ventures participates in subsequent funding rounds, inviting reputable investors to co-invest and add more value to the portfolio companies.
As an investment firm committed to Vietnam with a long-term strategy grounded in thorough research and a multi-stage investment approach, Kirin Capital brings strong resources and a global network to support startups.
With a spirit of collaborative growth, Kirin Capital and Do Ventures will continue to strengthen their relationship, actively connecting resources and identifying suitable investment opportunities. Together, they plan to co-host meaningful events and initiatives to nurture Vietnam’s startup and innovation ecosystem.
