Win more engagements in Vietnam's USD 932 million AI market by equipping your teams with AI-powered delivery and proposal tools that meet local compliance standards.
Vietnam's enterprise AI market was valued at USD 161.41 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 1.83 billion by 2034, growing at 31% CAGR. The AI Law (Law 134/2025) and Personal Data Protection Law create new compliance advisory opportunities for professional services firms. Vietnam's public procurement system requires 100% electronic bidding, with 60% using open competitive processes, creating structured opportunities for compliant firms. Only 13.8% of Vietnamese companies have deployed AI at scale, representing massive advisory and implementation demand. Professional services firms must compete against FPT's consulting division and global firms including McKinsey, BCG, Deloitte, KPMG, and EY, all with established Vietnam operations.
LOCAL CONTEXT
Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing digital economies in ASEAN, with a young, tech-savvy workforce and a thriving startup ecosystem. The Digital Vietnam 2030 vision and vocational training subsidies are creating strong tailwinds for AI adoption across industries.

Official SourceREGULATORY LANDSCAPE
Vietnam's AI Law (Law 134/2025), effective March 2026, establishes a risk-based classification system requiring mandatory pre-market conformity assessments for high-risk AI and human oversight for all AI decisions. The Personal Data Protection Law (effective January 2026) introduces revenue-based penalties up to 5% for data transfer violations, replacing Decree 13/2023's framework. The Cybersecurity Law (Decree 53/2022) requires 24-month local data storage for Vietnamese user data. Organisations should assess which of their AI applications fall under the high-risk category and prepare governance documentation before enforcement mechanisms are finalised.
CHALLENGES IN VIETNAM
Vietnam's Personal Data Protection Law effective January 2026 introduces revenue-based penalties up to 5% for data violations. Organisations must implement explicit consent mechanisms, 72-hour breach notification, and impact assessments for cross-border data transfers.
The AI Law (Law 134/2025) establishes a risk-based classification system requiring conformity assessments for high-risk AI. Organisations must evaluate which of their AI applications fall into high-risk categories and prepare governance documentation accordingly.
Only 15-20% of Vietnam's workforce has business-level English. AI training programmes and tools must be delivered in Vietnamese with localised examples to achieve meaningful adoption across teams.
While 73% of Vietnamese companies have adopted AI, only 13.8% have deployed at scale. Organisations need structured rollout frameworks to move beyond pilots and achieve enterprise-wide AI deployment.
OUR PROCESS
We assess your current AI maturity, technology stack, and strategic priorities within professional services firms including law firms, consultancies, and accounting practices. This includes interviews with operations, leadership, and frontline teams to map your highest-impact use cases.
We tailor all modules to your specific context within professional services firms including law firms, consultancies, and accounting practices. All examples, case studies, and exercises use scenarios your teams will recognise from their daily work.
Interactive workshops using real-world scenarios from professional services firms including law firms, consultancies, and accounting practices. Each module combines concept explanation with immediate practice on tasks your teams perform daily.
Participants develop 2-3 AI use case proposals specific to their departments, with business cases, risk assessments, and implementation roadmaps ready for leadership review.
30-day post-programme support includes office hours, Slack access, implementation coaching, and a follow-up session to review progress on use case pilots and address emerging challenges.

WHY PERTAMA PARTNERS
While Vietnamese market leaders like FPT (USD 2.47 billion revenue, USD 7.7 billion market cap) and VinAI (top-20 global AI R&D) offer strong local capability, and global consultancies (McKinsey, BCG, Deloitte, KPMG, EY, Accenture) provide enterprise advisory, Pertama Partners occupies a distinctive position: we combine cross-ASEAN regulatory expertise spanning the AI Law, PDPL, and Cybersecurity Law with structured, practitioner-led training methodology validated across multiple Southeast Asian markets. Unlike large consultancies, we focus exclusively on practical AI capability building rather than theoretical advisory. Unlike local tech companies, we bring regulatory knowledge across ASEAN jurisdictions, enabling Vietnamese enterprises expanding regionally to build consistent AI governance frameworks.
Vietnamese-language delivery is essential: only 15-20% of the workforce has business-level English proficiency. All training materials, exercises, and documentation must be provided in Vietnamese with bilingual facilitators available. Vietnamese corporate training culture traditionally favours lecture-based, instructor-led methods; however, AI training benefits from hands-on labs and practical demonstrations. We recommend a blended approach: structured presentations followed by guided hands-on practice with Vietnamese-language AI tools. Delivery should focus on practical application to Vietnamese business contexts, with case studies drawn from local industry examples where possible. Delivery is recommended in Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi, where 90% of Vietnam's tech talent and business headquarters are concentrated.
