SingCham Story
At a glance
The Singapore Chamber of Commerce Vietnam – SingCham Vietnam (formerly Singapore Business Group HCM City Chapter – SBG HCMC) is a non-profit organization established on 9 August 1992 by a small group of Singaporeans doing business or working in Vietnam.
Since then, it has evolved from a social club with a membership of 30 individuals into a premier business group with a membership strength of more than 400 members and is growing.
Besides organizing monthly social networking sessions amongst various business communities, seminars on law, and other business-related topics, The association also undertakes charity projects to help the less fortunate in Vietnam.
Since 2001, the association has set up an educational fund from the proceeds of an annual charity golf event to provide scholarships for needy and deserving Higher Secondary school and University students. To date, 2,795 such students had benefited from this scholarship.
In the first quarter of 2023, the official merger between SingCham Vietnam and SBAV – Singapore Business Association Vietnam in Hanoi is finalized. This merger will lead to the creation of a more significant business association, with a broader membership base, more resources, and a stronger voice in the community.

Dear Members and Friends,
It is my honor and privilege to address you as the President of the Singapore Chamber of Commerce Vietnam in our annual directory. You may also notice that this year’s edition of the Directory is a little thicker. This is because we had also incorporated directory of our members from Hanoi Chapter!
As we reflect on the past year’s achievements and challenges, I am filled with pride in the resilience and adaptability demonstrated by our members.
Despite the uncertainties brought about by global events, our chamber has remained steadfast in its commitment to fostering strong business ties between Singapore and Vietnam.
Throughout the year, we have witnessed remarkable collaboration and innovation among our members, contributing to the growth and prosperity of both nations. From pioneering ventures to impactful CSR initiatives like the Charity Golf event, each endeavor has reinforced the importance of our chamber as a catalyst for economic development and partnership. Looking ahead, I am confident that our chamber will continue to thrive and evolve in response to the dynamic business landscape.
With the support of our dedicated members and partners, we will explore new opportunities, embrace emerging trends, and overcome challenges together. I extend my deepest gratitude to our Corporate Sponsors and members for their unwavering support and dedication. Your contributions are integral to the success of our chamber and the advancement of Singapore-Vietnam relations.
