VinFast and GSM have announced new leadership appointments, with Mr. Pham Nhat Quan Anh assuming the role of CEO of VinFast Global, succeeding Mr. Pham Nhat Vuong, while also taking on the roles of Chairman and CEO of VinFast Vietnam. Mr. Nguyen Quoc Tuan will become Chairman of GSM Global, succeeding Ms. Pham Thu Huong, and Mr. Pham Nhat Minh Hoang will become CEO of GSM Global and concurrently CEO of GSM Vietnam. These changes come as Vingroup and its ecosystem companies focus on developing in-house talent and transitioning leadership to a younger generation to support their growth trajectories.
The leadership transition is significant as both VinFast and GSM are entering a period of strong and decisive global growth. VinFast currently operates in 16 countries, including key markets such as Vietnam, India, Indonesia, the Philippines, Europe, the Middle East, and North America. Its electric cars and motorcycles are manufactured at four facilities across Vietnam, Indonesia, and India. GSM, with its Green SM brand, operates in seven countries, including Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, the Philippines, India, Kazakhstan, and Denmark, and plans to expand into at least three additional markets within this year. GSM also aims to become a globally scaled public company with shares listed on an international stock exchange.
Mr. Pham Nhat Quan Anh, born in 1993, holds a Bachelor's degree from Singapore Management University and has held several key leadership positions at VinFast and other Vingroup companies. He was appointed Chairman of VinFast Global in May 2026 and will now hold ultimate responsibility for all of VinFast's operations. In addition to his roles at VinFast, he will continue as CEO of VinMetal Trading and Production JSC. Mr. Pham Nhat Quan Anh commented, "I am deeply honored by the Board of Directors' trust and confidence in entrusting me with the additional responsibility. Built on a strong foundation established over the years and supported by the growing confidence of customers across our markets, VinFast is well positioned to seize the significant opportunities ahead and further strengthen its role in advancing the global transition to sustainable mobility."
At GSM, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Tuan, currently CEO of GSM Global, has been appointed Chairman. Mr. Pham Nhat Minh Hoang, born in 2000, will succeed Mr. Tuan as CEO of GSM Global and CEO of GSM Vietnam. Mr. Pham Nhat Minh Hoang has held senior leadership positions at VinFast, Green Future, VinSmart Future, GSM, and other companies, and has invested in and serves as a major shareholder of several industrial, technology, energy, and infrastructure companies within the Vingroup ecosystem.
The appointments are of particular importance as they address the more demanding requirements of the companies' next phase of development and reflect positive expectations for the future of VinFast and GSM as they continue their expansion into international markets.
