When Business Becomes a Conversation: NNG Welcomes Ivey EMBA Executives
March 26, 2026 - Recently, NNG had the honor of hosting a distinguished group of executives from the Executive MBA program at Ivey Business School, Canada β one of the worldβs leading institutions in business education.
However, what took place at our office was far from a conventional company visit.
It was not about slides, frameworks, or rehearsed presentations.
It was abPost
out stories, challenges, and real experiences.
A Journey Shared β Not Presented
The session was led by Dung Ho (Leo), General Director of NNG, who chose a different approach:
Instead of presenting what NNG is today, he shared how NNG became what it is.
From the earliest days of uncertainty, Leo spoke candidly about:
How NNG secured its very first customer
The realities of building a company from the ground up
The pressure and resilience required to navigate through the COVID-19 period
And the defining moments that shaped NNGβs direction
Through this journey, NNG has grown from a startup into a trusted technology partner, achieving key milestones such as becoming a Microsoft Solutions Partner in Digital App & Innovation and Data & AI.
From Local Roots to Global Standards
Beyond the early journey, Leo also shared NNGβs evolution into an international company:
Establishing offices in Singapore and Japan
Building delivery capabilities aligned with global expectations
Continuously improving service quality to meet international standards
These were not just milestones β they were strategic decisions shaped by both ambition and necessity in a highly competitive global technology landscape.
A Truly Interactive Exchange
What made the session exceptional was not just the story β but the dialogue.
The EMBA participants brought with them diverse experiences and perspectives, leading to a highly engaging discussion around:
How to successfully operate and scale a business in Vietnam
Cultural and operational differences when expanding internationally
Leadership challenges in fast-growing organizations
The realities behind building sustainable, high-quality service delivery
The session quickly transformed into an open exchange of ideas, where questions sparked deeper insights, and insights led to meaningful conversations.
Beyond Business β A Shared Perspective
More than a company visit, this interaction reflected something deeper:
A shared curiosity about how businesses are built,
How leaders navigate uncertainty,
And how vision is translated into execution across different markets.
At NNG, we believe that growth is not only defined by what we build, but also by the conversations we engage in and the perspectives we exchange.
Looking Ahead
We sincerely thank the EMBA group from Ivey Business School for their visit, their thoughtful questions, and their openness in sharing perspectives.
This session marks not just a moment of connection, but the beginning of many more meaningful collaborations and exchanges in the future.
NNG β Building technology, sharing journeys, and connecting globally.
