In our Meet the Team section, we introduce the people behind Bigbom Eco, and dive into what drives them to help bring this project to life. We kick off with Mr. Vung Nguyen, Co-Founder and CEO of Bigbom Eco.

Changing his Future

Originally a student of the well-respected University of Mining and Geology, Vung quickly realized a life in research did not fit with his ambitions. “When I was getting the exam to go to University, I chose Geological Mining because it was my passion. However, through my experiences in that same university, I got in touch with several businesses and I found that my personality was much more entrepreneurial than my studies allowed.”

As a teenager, Vung started a project called Tonvinhthuonghieu. Although the project ultimately did not succeed, Nguyen sees this venture as an important landmark in his life. “I had failed early, I had learned and had matured earlier than many others. The instinct to live by the passion is very strong. While people lost faith in me, there was one person who still believed in me. It was myself.”

Vung Nguyen speaking at an event

Determined to further his entrepreneurial ambitions and use his experiences from his previous company, Vung started an advertising company named Adtop.. “From the beginning, I dreamed of bringing Adtop to become one of the leading companies in the advertising market. There were many difficulties at the start, at the time it was quite difficult to reach online advertisers in Vietnam. We had to educate the market about the potential of the industry, and after a while we finally convinced multiple Vietnamese companies to work with us. They quickly saw the potential of the market. This difficult period lasted only about two or three years.”

From Adtop to Bigbom Eco

In the years that followed, Adtop grew into one of Vietnam’s leading advertising companies, working with large international businesses such as Baskin Robbins, Lazada and Jockey, being responsible for over $1m USD in Facebook Ads budget per month. In addition, the agency was the first and biggest partner of Coccoc, which has been referred to as the ‘Google of Vietnam’. Through Vung’s experiences while growing Adtop, he noticed that the traditional model of online advertising is outdated, and that there several issues advertisers and publishers have to deal with on a daily basis.

I have been working in the online advertising industry for more than 8 years, running ads for many clients like Baskin Robbins, Lazada, Jockey; hence, I understand the difficulties of running a manual promotion. Since 2015, we have successfully researched the application of AI technology to increase advertising effectiveness that requires little effort from users. In addition, we have encountered barriers to trust in payment and advertising amongst partners. With the introduction of blockchain, we were able to develop Bigbom Eco, which we are confident will solve the big problems within this market.

Although the technological evolution of recent years has enabled Vung to solve several issues within the traditional advertising industry, he remains focused on the end goal of the product. “Other than many applications in the market, we aim to directly solve these problems in way that is easy to understand for users. We do not focus solely on the technology. We focus on solutions. The solution should be leading the technology, as that is what will ultimately convince users to use our ecosystem. “

Vung has high ambitions for the coming years with Bigbom. “We are looking to revolutionize the online advertising market. That is our mission, and we will carry out this mission in the coming years.” Vung’s achievements and ambitions have not gone unnoticed, as he was featured in a segment on VTV1, a National TV-channel viewed by millions of Vietnamese citizens.
