About this episode
Ho Thuy Tien and Thue Quist Thomassen from market research agency Decision Lab return to You Don’t Know Vietnam to break down their latest Connected Consumer Report — and what it means for brands. We dive into why Threads is exploding among Gen Z, how brands should approach audio platforms and live commerce, and why Vietnam’s ride-hailing and digital finance sectors are evolving fast. From the rise of Xanh SM to the blurring lines between e-wallets and banking apps, this episode is full of insights for anyone looking to stay ahead in Vietnam’s fast-moving digital landscape.
