THE FOUNDER
:: For Steve Dinh, its President/CEO, AVI Holdings,
Inc. began as a dream concept 16 years ago, when
he first founded American Container Line (ACL)
based in San Jose, California, with its major
hub in Ho Chi Minh City. Back then, he already
realized the need for a diversified, yet integrated
AVI enterprise as a means to address the vast
investment and business potential of an emerging
economic powerhouse like Vietnam.
:: Since then, he relentlessly pursued his vision
and has gathered a pool of business associates,
composed of highly successful Vietnamese American
entrepreneurs with financial resources, business
acuteness and technical expertise, and who also
share his passion for carrying out large-scale,
financially sustainable public and/or private
investment projects that can also contribute to
the betterment of Vietnam, economically and socially.
:: At the same time, he also established himself
an honest and trusted partner within a wide network
of influential decision makers in the Vietnamese
business circles. |
