The Founder
Although born and raised in Hanoi, Vietnam, Thuy has experienced different
aspects of her life and career in different places around the world. Her vision
is broad and her mind is open. Thuy has proved to all of her clients and
colleagues with whom she has cooperated that her professionalism and
excellent assistance skills are her most outstanding strengths. Having worked
as an assistant for years, notably as Executive Assistant to CEO in a
Vietnamese consultancy, Thuy understands what makes a good assistant
and how an assistant contributes to and enhances a leader’s success. This is
the core difference between her business concept of Assist Pro and other
forms of professional services available in Vietnam today. Thuy believes that
multidisciplinary knowledge, cross-cultural sensitivity and a supportive
nature are the key elements enabling Sevencoloriris’ Assist Pro to deliver
the best value to its customers.

There are many people these days coming to Vietnam to look for opportunities. While economies are suffering in most parts of the
world, Vietnam is one of the few countries that have continued to grow. With a population of over 90 million, boasting a young and
cheap labor force, Vietnam has become one of the most important factories of the world. Moreover, this country is also a popular spot
for tourists and attracts million of vacationers every year.
Do business in Vietnam?
Many business people hit a barrier in terms of language, communication and/or culture when they first come to
Vietnam. A large number of people ask for local help but what they find is far from satisfaction. Lots of business
visitors usually stay in the country very shortly. They spend just couple days to do everything including
conferences, meeting with partners, travelling and so on. Under time and budget constraints, it is not easy to
find a qualified assistant providing such services as translation, business advice, quick research and reporting,
and business liaison with a high level of professionalism.
Contact us
Moreover some hesitate to use interpreters
delivered by Vietnamese partners due to concerns
over neutrality. This is especially so when they
desire assistance in sensitive matters, for instance
clarifying points in a contract.
On the other hand, most translation agencies simply
delivered clients with linguistic ability rather than
providing them a human resource who also
understands business, marketing, media, social
issues and politics. Assist Pro can provide all this.

Relocation to Vietnam takes much more time and energy to preparation than business trips or short travel.
Living in a totally new country is never an easy thing to do, especially when moving with the whole family. It
requires every single member to be well-prepared not only in finance, but also in mentality. Usually the latter
leaves us with a bigger headache. Plenty of things have to be carefully considered before the journey starts,
such as looking for a school for the kids, finding a job for the spouse , searching for accommodation,
becoming accustomed to transportation and learning about a different culture, food, customs, etc. For a
person who has never experienced Vietnam before, this seems to be a challenging task. That is why a
