The digital "revolution" in Vietnam and noticeable numbers

In recent years, Vietnam has become one of the potential markets for businesses with the development of smartphones' platform. A report by the global Mobile Marketing Association (MMA) has shown that the increase in smartphone market penetration and the use of mobile data increasing in both urban and rural areas has "flared up" the budget for advertising on mobile devices in Vietnam. Approximately $77.1 million was spent in 2017, double the figure of  $38.5 million in 2016, accounting for about 50-60% of the total budget for digital advertising activities of most major brands.

More notably, for about 70% of the population living in rural areas, mobile phones have become a basic communication tool and an integral part of many people's lives and work. However, marketers still face many difficulties in reaching these targets because of the lack of market insight and consumer behaviour.

How does members of MMA react to this trend?

In the context that the digital "revolution" in the world in general and Vietnam in particular is happening at an extremely fast pace, many businesses have been adjusting their strategies to catch up with the era and consumer's trend. Facebook - one of the board members of Vietnam Mobile Marketing Association (MMA) - has also taken a step forward with many breakthrough policies.

In the presentation at CEO-CMO Summit Vietnam 2018, Ms. Christy Le, former Facebook Country Director of Vietnam, emphasized: "Data is the tool to connect online users to offline." Up to 90% of consumers shop at real stores, but 60% of them will decide to buy when they see products on the internet. Two online - offline platforms need to be coordinated and connected to effectively reach consumers and attract purchases. And according to her, data is the most effective tool to connect these two platforms.

Adtima - another member of the Management Board of MMA Vietnam is also a good example of business innovation to keep up with the digital race. "After the mobile era is the era of artificial intelligence (AI)" is the thought of Mr. Nguyen Anh Tuan, CEO of Adtima, when sharing about the journey and development orientation of technology companies. Based on users' mobile behavior and habits, Adtima has succeeded in building an ecosystem of applications from music, news, chat, finance, ... on mobile platforms.

However, for further development, advanced technologies such as AI need to be applied to connect users to the services and products they care about, towards convenience. He emphasized: "In the near future, Vietnamese people can use Zalo as their virtual assistant, like Safari, Cortana or Google Assistant."
