AsemconnectVietnam - Thien Viet Securities Joint Stock Company (TVS) has just announced a $4 million investment in Dat Bike, a Vietnamese electric motorcycle manufacturer.

This investment was made during Dat Bike's Series B funding round and marks the participation of a domestic investment bank in the electric vehicle (EV) sector.
This latest investment by TVS is part of its strategy to promote technological innovation, green development, and sustainable growth. The capital is expected to be allocated to key items of Dat Bike, including expanding production scale, improving the supply chain, upgrading the distribution system, and strengthening R&D capabilities.
Strengthening these operational platforms will help Dat Bike better prepare for its expansion into the regional market in the next phase. Besides financial resources, TVS also supports Dat Bike in management consulting, development planning, value chain optimization, and connection to capital markets to enhance operational efficiency and long-term growth potential.
In private equity investment, TVS pursues a proactive and selective approach, targeting businesses with efficient operational foundations, clear technological capabilities, and strong growth potential. The investment landscape is being reshaped towards quality and long-term value, placing higher demands on the capabilities of Vietnamese businesses. With the belief that the private sector is a crucial driver of economic development, TVS continues to strengthen its support for businesses through capital, management expertise, and market connections.
Ms. Nguyen Thanh Thao, General Director of TVS, stated that the trend of green mobility is clearly emerging globally as countries promote emission reduction policies towards the Net Zero 2050 target. Vietnam has over 77 million motorbikes in circulation and approximately 3 million new motorbikes sold annually, making it one of the largest two-wheeler markets in the world. In this context, Dat Bike is a pioneering domestic enterprise, self-sufficient in technology from research and design to production. "We believe Dat Bike will continue to expand its scale and promote the transition to clean energy vehicles in Vietnam," Ms. Thao said.
“As a strategic financial investor, TVS wishes to accompany Dat Bike on its journey to expand production, enhance R&D capabilities, and build a Vietnamese electric vehicle ecosystem towards sustainable development and emission reduction. This also demonstrates TVS's responsible investment orientation: creating long-term value for businesses, investors, and society,” a TVS representative added.
Mr. Nguyen Ba Canh Son, Founder and CEO of Dat Bike, shared: “TVS's decision to invest not only signifies a financial contribution to Dat Bike but also affirms its belief in the ability of Vietnamese technology to conquer the international market in general and Dat Bike's growth strategy in particular. We appreciate the recognition and partnership of a reputable domestic investor like TVS. This collaboration will help Dat Bike accelerate: expanding production, diversifying products, improving the scale and quality of services, and making a practical contribution to the country's Net Zero journey.”
