“VIMC’s presence in the Top 10 in 2024 will be an inspirational story for the business community,” said Mr. Nguyen Canh Hong, General Director of Eurowindow Joint Stock Company, Chairman of the Sao Do Entrepreneurs Club, as soon as the Top 10 list was announced after the secret ballot round of the 2024 Vietnam Golden Star Final Selection Council.
Previously, as the head of the candidate evaluation team of Vietnam National Shipping Lines (VIMC), Mr. Hong spent a lot of time sharing about the journey that he called "not just reviving, but rising from the abyss".
Once known as Vinalines, then a scandalous journey, but after 10 years of restructuring, after 4 years of switching to a joint stock company model, from negative equity, in 2024, VIMC has erased accumulated losses, recording impressive business results. Moreover, Mr. Hong said, VIMC's development strategy is to work with the world's largest shipping lines to bring the Vietnamese fleet to the international market, while developing port infrastructure, participating in investing in the construction of Can Gio deep-water port to become an international transit center, competing with existing centers in the region...
“Not only building a nest to welcome eagles, VIMC is also trying to 'move' the eagle's nest to Vietnam. We feel not only the aspiration, but also the great effort and determination to change of a state-owned enterprise when choosing to compete internationally, instead of domestically; choosing to go with the world's leading enterprises to do large-scale projects, instead of just exploiting the privileges of state-owned enterprises at home. This is something that we often do not fully imagine about state-owned enterprises in the new context,” Mr. Hong convinced the Final Council of the 2024 Golden Star Vietnam Selection, with the majority of CEOs of Vietnamese corporations and private enterprises.
The appearance of the "newcomer" VIMC, the presence of FPT for the 8th consecutive time in the Top 10 Golden Stars of Vietnam, as well as the presence of brands such as PNJ, Starvian, Tan A - Dai Thanh, Da Nang Rubber, Kido, Traphaco... have one thing in common. That is the pioneering gene code and never giving up the desire to rise up.

This is something that we often do not fully imagine about state-owned enterprises in the new context", Mr. Hong convinced the Final Council of the Golden Stars of Vietnam 2024, with the majority of CEOs of corporations and private enterprises in Vietnam. The appearance of the "newcomer" VIMC, the presence of FPT for the 8th consecutive time in the Top 10 Golden Stars of Vietnam, as well as the presence of brands such as PNJ, Starvian, Tan A - Dai Thanh, Cao Su Da Nang, Kido, Traphaco... have one thing in common. That is the pioneering gene code and never stop aspiring to rise. Journey of connection In the list of Golden Stars of Vietnam in 2024, many new brands with new business models and new ways of doing things have appeared. Enterprises of 8x and 9x CEOs are also starting to dominate. In the 2024 award ceremony, assessments of green transformation and digital transformation are one of the new points, although not yet an official scoring criterion, but are a significant strength of the brands. The reappearance in high rankings of many familiar brands, such as PNJ, Traphaco, KIDO or FPT... is largely due to breakthroughs in technology application and digital transformation. But this is also the highlight of many new Sao Vang Dat Viet brands, such as the "near-unicorn" Giao hang tiet kiem with the strategy of "creativity without stereotypes" or VMID with the view of not playing wildly in technology, but choosing the same starting point as the big guys in building Vietnamese truck brands. Many agricultural and tourism businesses are also returning after the pandemic with a completely new mindset and lessons on flexible adaptation and digital technology... "The scale of many businesses may still be small, but the bounce will be huge because of market opportunities, strong development trends and especially the breakthrough and sharp thinking of young people. I believe that these brands will be positive factors, creating a new mark for Sao Vang Dat Viet, and also representing the generation of young businesses in the new era of development", Mr. Pham Dinh Doan, Chairman of Phu Thai Group, member of the Final Council of Sao Vang Dat Viet 2024, has high expectations. It must also be said that Mr. Doan and a number of Sao Do businessmen participate in Sao Vang Dat Viet activities not only as founders, the first generation of the Vietnam Young Entrepreneurs Association as well as the Sao Vang Dat Viet Award, but also in the position of consulting, supporting, promoting the entrepreneurial spirit, innovation, and creativity of young entrepreneurs. Many investment-business consulting and connection plans have been formed right in the candidate assessments... The footprints of Sao Vang Dat Viet brands will continue to be present at key points in the country's journey ahead, with the participation of both large enterprises and small and medium enterprises.Investment Newspaper
