About Us
Vietnam-focused private equity, venture capital, and advisory firm since 2007.
SAM is a private investment firm that invests in, builds, and advises high-growth businesses, working alongside entrepreneurs, family offices, corporations, and institutional investors.
I. Investment
Since 2007, SAM has invested in 65+ companies and projects in Vietnam, with the top 10 investments generated IRRs from 33% to 481%
II. Advisory
SAM arranged $300M financing from U.S. DFC to SeABank.
SeABank, a rapidly growing Vietnamese commercial bank, sought to strengthen its international investor base and credibility with leading global development finance institutions.
SAM introduced SeABank to the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation and supported the bank throughout the due diligence, structuring, and term sheet negotiation process. The transaction was completed in 9 months.
III. Open Innovation
Through our partnership with Plug and Play Tech Center, SAM connects entrepreneurs, corporations, and universities with capital, technology partners, and global expansion opportunities.
