of Business Information Service (FEBIS) writes in a 2022 article that “Vietnam is the most dynamic Education Technology (EdTech) market in Asia'' There is a strong investment in Vietnam’s EdTech

government has opened the door for many international universities, corporations and non- governmental organizations (NGOs) to cooperate in promoting English in Vietnam The Government of Vietnam clearly identifies education as one of the priority areas; therefore, businesses investing in this sector can enjoy a 10% tax reduction during their operation, benefiting from years of corporate income tax (CIT) exemption and years of 50% CIT reduction 1.1.4 Social-Cultural Vietnamese society and culture is rooted in Confucianism, always attaching great importance to education as the key to success Vietnamese parents are willing to put in great efforts to ensure their children get a good education For the Vietnamese workforce, additional attributes, including language proficiency and soft skills, are highly valued due to their ability to increase individual employability 1.1.5 Economics In the World Bank August 2022 publication titled “Taking Stock: Vietnam Economic Growth Update”, the economy of Vietnam recovered strongly in the first half of 2022 After the social distancing due to the COVID-19 epidemic in the third quarter of 2021 The economy rebounded, growing 5.2% in the fourth quarter of 2021 and 6.4% in the first half of 2022 Additionally, Vietnam actively integrates into the global economy by joining the WTO in 2007 and having free trade agreements with other countries This contributes to the rapid increase in demand for language training, because both domestic and international companies consider applicants to have a higher level of foreign language proficiency 1.1.6 Technology According to the latest data, Vietnam's population currently has nearly 100 million people, including 45.7% people of working age and another 38% of people aged 0-24 who have a significant need for learning languages, especially English Along with that, the emerging middle class, accounting for 13% of the population, is expected to continue to increase (World Bank Vietnam, 2020), thereby creating a strong purchasing power in the market as this market is dedicated to studying abroad and traveling internationally The number of people using the Internet accounts for 70.3% of the population, with an average duration of hours 47 minutes Vietnam is ranked 10th worldwide with 61.37 million phone devices sold This PESTEL analysis shows that the market in Vietnam is ripe for development and a new entrant in the education technology industry is a welcome addition Harnessing the potential of Vietnam by tapping into the up and coming technology sector of the
