Deals you would not see from outside
Partners, officials and industry people bring us opportunities before they reach a market. Most of what we work on never gets listed.
A school, a hospital and two residential complexes. We originated, licensed, financed and delivered every one of them in Vietnam. The same team now runs a technology book: data centres, AI compute, medical devices and clean mobility, from Hanoi to Australia and the United States.
Elite Global Invest is an investment and business group based in Hanoi. We back projects here with our own capital and we run five operating companies of our own.
When a partner asks how long an approval really sits on a desk, the answer comes from having waited for it ourselves.
Partners, officials and industry people bring us opportunities before they reach a market. Most of what we work on never gets listed.
Most firms pick a lane. We start projects from raw land and we buy into proven ones, so the structure can follow the opportunity instead of the reverse.
Deep local relationships plus working ties across Asia-Pacific and Australia. Capital and ideas move in both directions.

It depends on your industry, the licensing scope, and whether you are selling, manufacturing or just setting up a presence. Some setups move quickly, others need staged approvals. After one alignment call we can give you a realistic timeline, including what can run in parallel to pull it in.
In many sectors yes, though not all, and the how matters: scope, licensing category and structure. We advise the cleanest ownership model for your exact business so you stay compliant and keep control.
There is no single right answer. It depends on your revenue plan, the licences you need and how much control you want. We pressure-test the options and recommend the fastest path that does not create problems two years later.
Yes, and we do not rely on brochures. Local networks plus real checks on capability, reliability, incentives and red flags. The goal is fewer surprises after you sign.
Commercial checks on what is real and what is inflated, alongside practical risk screening across contracts, control, compliance and operational capacity. You get a clear view of what matters rather than a hundred-page report.
A clear next step. Either a go or no-go direction, a roadmap proposal, or a short list of options to choose between. We will also tell you if this is not our lane.
Send the outline. If it is not a fit, we will say so on the first call.

Data centre and AI infrastructure development in Vietnam, with lender and investor work on campuses in the United States and Australia.
Who this is for
Site owners and developers in Vietnam, and the technology companies and capital partners around them.
Vietnam data centre opportunities taken through site review, power access, fibre and connectivity, stakeholder coordination and partner or operator matching. For campuses abroad, the same desk prepares the pre-development and lender packages.
Readiness gaps, execution risk, the commercial use case, the capital need and the development pathway, written up so an opportunity can move toward investment readiness or be dropped early, before it costs anyone money.
AI, semiconductor, robotics, SaaS and digital infrastructure companies reviewed across business model, technical readiness, commercial traction and investor suitability.
Reviewed opportunities introduced to strategic investors, technology funds, family offices and infrastructure-oriented capital partners, under NDA and with the diligence file already built.
Sites, product surfaces and the content behind them, built and run for portfolio companies and for clients who need a credible presence before they raise or before they land here.
Standing up a Vietnamese engineering team: levelling, salary banding against the real local market, sourcing, employer-of-record or direct entity, and the retention plan that stops you rebuilding it in eighteen months.
Electric vehicle and micromobility businesses entering Vietnam or sourcing from it. Licensing, supplier validation, distribution and the local team to hold it together.
A structured review against what an operator and a lender will actually ask: power availability and firm capacity, grid connection timing, redundancy path, cooling and water, fibre routes and carrier presence, land title and zoning, flood exposure, and the approval sequence with realistic dates.
Sourcing candidate sites across industrial parks and provincial land banks, then coordinating the site-control step so the site is actually held while diligence runs.
Preliminary power-access work with EVN and provincial authorities, plus renewable-linked supply routes: DPPA structures, rooftop and adjacent solar, and wind. We are currently evaluating a 32 MW wind opportunity on exactly this logic.
Carrier presence, terrestrial route diversity, subsea landing exposure, and latency to the markets your workload actually serves. All of it assessed as commercial risk, in the language an investment committee already uses.
Identifying and qualifying the local development and delivery parties: operators, contractors, M&E specialists, commissioning teams. Then checking they have done it before at your scale.
The unglamorous deliverable that decides whether a deal survives diligence: a development work plan, an evidence register that traces every claim to a document, and a data room an investment committee can actually read.
Where EGI does invest it does so through founder and partner capital, and says so on the specific opportunity. Everywhere else we are the origination and coordination layer.

Funds, family offices and corporates looking to acquire in Vietnam. Owners preparing to sell. Sponsors who need capital and cannot reach it from where they sit.
Nineteen positions, from operating assets to mandates still in preparation.
Updated September 2026.
Stage track: screening · review · mandate · delivery · operating
01
Deals reach us through founders, provincial relationships and operating partners we work with day to day. Each one is screened before it is shown to anyone.
02
Structuring and incentives built for how Vietnam actually works.
03
We stay close to delivery, from partner negotiations to approvals and operations.
EGI does not guarantee funding or bind any capital source, and never holds client or investor money. Fees are a retainer plus a success fee, agreed in the mandate.
What a lender or investor will ask for first, assembled before they ask: corporate file, asset paper, permits and model, with the gaps closed before anyone outside sees them.
Teaser, information memorandum and financial model built to the standard of the capital being approached, and checked against the paper behind them.
Introductions to lenders, investors and intermediaries under NDA and non-circumvention, then the follow-through: diligence requests tracked, questions answered, term sheets compared side by side.
Negotiation support on commercial terms, coordination with counsel and the financing parties, and the conditions-precedent list run down to the day funds move.

Where the advantage is execution rather than entry price. If the deal only works because someone can actually deliver it, this is the lane. It is where the four Hanoi projects sit.
Assets where the value is there but the execution is not. Fast commercial validation, then a focused fix on whatever is actually holding the asset back.
Where a partnership makes the deal bigger or faster than either side manages alone. Structured tightly enough that execution responsibility is never ambiguous.
Some opportunities do not fit a standard shape. We design the deal to match the reality on the ground without overcomplicating it.
Screened hard, and only for opportunities with demonstrable demand, a route to control, and a realistic execution path.
Commercial validation, partner checks, financial evaluation, regulatory pathway and downside mapping, all of it before anyone commits.
Governance, incentives, protections and exit options, written so they are enforceable rather than aspirational.
We stay involved to drive timelines, partnerships, operational delivery and, when it comes to it, crisis management. This is the stage most advisers are gone by.
A private-market platform for Vietnam and Australia linked opportunities, from project SPVs to operating business acquisitions and digital infrastructure.
01
Vietnam acquisitions, growth investments and selected real asset opportunities.
02
Project-level positions in data centres, AI infrastructure and the energy developments tied to them.

Companies entering Vietnam, businesses moving manufacturing or engineering here, and companies already on the ground whose project has stalled.
Entity structure selection, conditional business lines, incorporation, tax registration, bank account opening, and a contracting package standardised for Vietnamese counterparties.
Standing up a Vietnamese engineering or software team: role architecture and levelling, salary banding against the real local market, sourcing and screening, employer-of-record or direct-entity options, onboarding, and the retention plan that stops you rebuilding it in eighteen months.
Access to Vietnamese suppliers and manufacturers across construction materials, furniture, fit-out, equipment and project inputs. Screened, visited, and checked against the standards your market requires.

Elite Global Invest invests in Vietnam and helps foreign and local companies set up and grow here.
Founded and run in Hanoi
We started as investors, hands-on with projects across sectors. International partners kept asking for the same thing. They wanted guidance on how to actually land and grow here, alongside the capital.
The platform now runs across Vietnam and Australia. Founder capital and partner capital fund our own projects in Hanoi, and a technology desk takes data centre, AI and medical technology positions in Australia and the United States through to closing.
On-the-ground relationships and deal flow that surface opportunities you would not find from outside the market.
Support for companies expanding into Vietnam or building offshore manufacturing here, with the right partners and a structure that holds.
Moving from strategy to signed partners, secured locations, compliant operations and progress you can measure.
We co-drive the decisions and stay accountable for how it turns out.
Message from the Chairman and Chief Executive
Dear partners,
Vietnam is moving fast, and so are the opportunities here. We built this company on one belief: access and execution beat theory every time.
We started as investors, hands-on with projects across sectors. Over time international partners kept asking us for the same thing. They wanted capital, and alongside it they wanted guidance on how to actually land and grow here. That is why today, next to the investments, we act as a strategic partner for foreign businesses entering this market.
Our role is simple. Open the right doors, move things forward, and stay in the trenches with you.
If you are building a product, scaling a company or looking to manufacture offshore, you should not have to decode regulations or chase partners on your own. We become your local extension, the team that turns the plan into traction.
Vietnam rewards speed, relationships and smart execution. We are here to make sure you have all three.
