Table 1.1 Revenue, cost and profit situation of AIESEC Vietnam Co., Ltd from
Trang 21Revenue dropped by 3% and profit fell by 20% from 2017 and 2018 Thisdecline is the result of the company having to cease operations in the final two months
of 2017 owing to issues with the business license
In the period of 2018 - 2019, the revenue and profit of the company increasedsignificantly This is because of the company's change in structure to have deputydirectors to focus on different markets for startup companies and small mediumcompanies and invest more talents in each department
In 2020 and the first six months of 2021, the company’s revenue and profitseriously decreased due to the border closure to avoid possible spread of COVID-19
In 2021, we have some strategies to improve the context
