The Alliance launches second professional services centre in Vietnam

This expands Singapore’s services footprint whilst reinforcing economic collaboration with Vietnam.

The Alliance, a coalition of Singapore’s leading trade associations and professional bodies, has launched its second Professional Services (PS) Centre in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), Vietnam.

The move follows the group's launch of its first centre in Shanghai in June 2025.

“Serving as a one-stop hub, the Centre will provide trusted networks and professional expertise to support both inbound businesses entering Vietnam’s fast-growing economy and Vietnamese enterprises seeking to expand into regional and global markets,” said Pang Te Cheng, Consul-General of the Republic of Singapore in HCMC.

The Alliance brings together eight trade associations and professional bodies, namely the Association of Small & Medium Enterprises, the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants, the Institute of Valuers and Appraisers, Singapore, the Singapore Business Federation, the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry, the Singapore Manufacturing Federation, the Tax Academy of Singapore, and the Law Society of Singapore.

In addition, local partners such as the Vietnam Association of Accountants and Auditors and the Vietnam Independent Directors Association, as well as other professional and business associations, have come on board to provide local expertise.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
