EzyRemit Co-Founder Allan Nguyen to Join AABN Panel on AI in Vietnam
EzyRemit has confirmed its participation in the upcoming webinar, “AI in Business: Signal or Noise? How to Make it Work in Vietnam” (also known as the AI in Business Vietnam webinar), scheduled for Thursday, 25 June 2026. Hosted by the Australian Alumni Business Network (AABN) Digital Economy Sector Committee and the Vietnam-Australia Scholars & Experts Association (VASEA), the session will address the commercial viability, strategic value, and regulatory compliance of artificial intelligence deployment within the Vietnamese market.
The webinar comes at a critical juncture as Vietnam’s digital economy enters a period of accelerated growth. Consequently, key industry leaders will share their hands-on experiences deploying AI, machine learning, and open banking solutions in real Vietnamese business settings. Furthermore, the discussion will focus on separating speculative technology noise from real, value-generating business applications.
Why the AI in Business Vietnam Webinar Matters
The 2025 to 2026 window represents a major regulatory turning point for digital and AI investments in Vietnam. Specifically, the Digital Technology Industry Law took effect on 1 January 2026, followed by the landmark AI Law on 1 March 2026, which introduces a risk-tiered classification system. Furthermore, the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) imposes strict consent requirements and data localisation obligations. Therefore, compliance is no longer just a legal consideration; it is the new operating system for any business deploying AI in the Vietnamese market.
Additionally, Decree 94/2025 on the controlled fintech sandbox has opened live pilots for open banking, AI credit scoring, and peer-to-peer lending. As a result, digital-first financial services providers like EzyRemit have a structured, compliant pathway to pilot cutting-edge solutions. In essence, these regulatory updates establish the rules every business must understand before committing capital or technology to the region.
Bilateral Fintech Opportunities and Vietnam’s Talent Advantage
Vietnam’s software engineering and data science talent pool represents an underrated strategic asset for both Vietnamese and Australian enterprises. Moreover, this talent pool is crucial for executing complex AI integrations and managing compliance infrastructure. Within the broader Australia-Vietnam Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, digital innovation and economic reform are designated as priority areas. In particular, fintech services bridging both nations must navigate these new regulatory frameworks to offer secure, compliant cross-border solutions.
Specifically, the webinar will explore four core focus areas:
- The Regulatory Landscape: De-risking AI investments under the AI Law and Personal Data Protection Law.
- Signal and Noise: Validating AI use cases that deliver real business outcomes, such as credit scoring and transaction monitoring.
- Vietnam’s Talent Advantage: Accessing and leveraging the country’s engineering and data talent pool as a strategic asset.
- Decisions for Action: Making localized operational choices to successfully capture market opportunities.
What Leaders Say
“As AI and open banking transition from theoretical concepts to highly regulated financial infrastructure, compliance and data sovereignty become paramount. Specifically, navigating Vietnam’s AI Law and Personal Data Protection Law is essential for building trust and delivering reliable, compliant fintech services across the Australia-Vietnam corridor,” said Allan Nguyen, Co-Founder of EzyRemit.
“AI is the core engine driving the transition from simple digital wallets to comprehensive, AI-driven super-apps. However, implementing these technologies requires a deep understanding of customer behavior and absolute compliance with emerging data protection regulations to protect our 30 million users,” noted Mr. Nguyen Ba Diep, Co-Founder of MoMo Vietnam.
