We assess the market, find and vet your local partners and distributors, set up your route in, and represent you on the ground until you are ready to hire.
Market entry is a sequence: evaluate, access, structure, implement. Use one service or all five.
Opportunity mapping, competitor context, risk, readiness and route-in recommendations - before you commit capital.
Identification, screening and introduction of local partners, distributors and stakeholders - screened before you meet them.
Company setup coordination, vendor referrals, admin pathway and operating readiness.
In-market relationship support, meeting coordination and momentum before you hire locally.
Vetted regional specialists in selected markets when you need support beyond Vietnam. Runs alongside the four stages, not after them.
Scope, process and pricing for every service, on one page.
See all services →We don't claim to be everywhere. We build a small, screened bench of trusted partners in each priority market.
Highest relevance for early regional work, partner sourcing and international company interest.
For clients with larger regional ambitions, investor links, supply chains or mature plans.
Engaged when a brief requires specific local support - not a first-wave credibility claim.
Every engagement uses the stages it needs, in the order that fits the client.
A golf-related investor needed a clearer read on partners and route-in before committing capital.
An exporter needed vetted distributors and a local operating pathway before hiring on the ground.
A growth-stage business wanted to know which APAC markets to prioritise and how to sequence entry.
Illustrative examples based on typical engagements.

I've spent over ten years here - in insurance and international client support - watching good companies make avoidable mistakes: the wrong first partner, the wrong sequence, the wrong assumption about how relationships actually work in-market.
Open Table exists so you don't start from zero. I bring local judgement, a vetted bench of partners, and a method - so you arrive with the right people already at the table, not a stack of introductions you have to vet yourself.
APAC is not one market. I won't pretend to have offices everywhere. What I offer is narrower and more useful: I know who's worth trusting, and I'll only seat them next to you once they've earned it.
For organisations exploring Vietnam or selected APAC markets who want a clearer route before committing time, capital or relationships.
