VinFast Auto Ltd. announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Pham Nhat Quan Anh as Chairman of the Board of Directors, effective May 23, 2026. The move is designed to support the company’s global expansion objectives as it enters a new stage of development.
The board approved Mr. Anh’s appointment to replace Ms. Le Thi Thu Thuy, who will step down as Chairwoman and member of VinFast’s Board of Directors and continue to serve as Vice Chairwoman of Vingroup, the automaker’s major shareholder, focusing on key strategic priorities.
Mr. Anh concurrently serves as Vice Chairman and Standing Deputy General Director at VinFast Trading and Production JSC. He brings extensive multi-industry management experience and has been credited with contributing to VinFast’s progress from its domestic foundation to its global expansion strategy.
“I am honored to assume the role of Chairman of the Board of VinFast. VinFast has built a strong foundation over the past several years, and we remain focused on executing the Company’s long-term strategic priorities, advancing innovation, and continuing to strengthen our global operations and customer experience. I look forward to working closely with the leadership team as VinFast enters its next stage of growth,” said Mr. Anh.
Mr. Anh holds a bachelor’s degree in business management from Singapore Management University. Before joining VinFast in February 2019, he was Deputy General Director and Deputy Chief Operating Officer of Vinpearl Joint Stock Company from 2017 to 2019, gaining experience in operational management and strategic planning across hospitality and services.
Since joining VinFast, Mr. Anh has held senior leadership roles across vehicle development, manufacturing, sales and after-sales services, including Deputy General Director of Global Sales, Marketing and Aftersales, and Director of the Planning, Program Coordination and Quality Inspection Division. Those roles helped support VinFast’s rapid expansion from a localized Vietnamese operation to a company with global ambitions.
