ADB Publishes Book on Successful Poverty-escape Businessmen

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) on November 20 launched a second volume of a series of books, entitled “Entrepreneur - the road to success” profiling successful businesspeople in the country. The book, in both Vietnamese and English, features 30 stories of successful enterprises and reports actual stories of entrepreneurs setting up businesses and developing successful links to markets.

 

The stories were selected from a report on 50 case studies conducted by the Ministry of Science and Technology’s National Institute for Science and Technology. The research was carried out as part of “Making markets work better for the Poor” - a regional technical assistance project supported by the ADB, the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development (DFID) and the Tokyo-based ADB institute.
