I grew up in a fishing village in Huế. The kind where you wake up at 4am to the smell of the sea and everyone assumes you'll become a fisherman too.
But I went to school instead. A school one hour away from home. That's where I met Chuong. His mom let me stay at their place for years. We were 16. We talked about everything except business.
Fast forward. I spent years at Mobifone, bouncing between cities until I landed in Daklak. Highlands. Coffee. Red dirt roads. At some point I got this idea stuck in my head: Vietnamese kids could create content for the world. Not just consume it. Create it.
I built a few things. Some worked. But scaling? That's where I kept hitting walls. No tech brain. No clue how to run things internationally.
Then Chuong popped back into my life. 15 years later. It had been so long we hadn't talked business in forever. Turns out he's been working at Google UK, married Yen along the way. He does tech. She does marketing and business. I do... whatever this is. Sounds made up, but it's true.
We talked. It fit. They joined as advisors. Then Thao jumped in. First hire. She gets how to talk to people who aren't Vietnamese. Rare skill. Great fit!
Four people. Three cities. One group chat that almost never shuts up.
That's how Eos started. No big plan. Just the right people showing up at the right time.
Funny thing is, right people keep showing up. So we keep saying yes. If this mess sounds like your kind of thing, come say hi. No promises we'll change the world. But we'll definitely change your sleep schedule.
