What ekino Vietnam does

ekino Vietnam is a Ho Chi Minh City-headquartered digital transformation and software services firm and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Havas Group, the French global communications conglomerate. The company employs around 600 digital practitioners across 8 offices in Ho Chi Minh City, Paris, Bordeaux, Singapore, Hong Kong, Bengaluru, and New York, and operates as the official Sage X3 reseller and implementation partner in Vietnam. Its core product line combines the Sage X3 ERP with a proprietary Vietnam Legislation Pack that keeps deployments compliant with Vietnamese accounting standards (VAS, Circular 99/2025) and an eTool connector that links Sage X3 to domestic e-invoicing platforms (VNPT, Viettel, Bkav, Misa).

Beyond ERP, ekino delivers custom software development and UX/UI design across e-commerce platforms (OroCommerce, Sylius, Shopify), cloud infrastructure (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud), content and digital experience platforms (Adobe Experience Manager, Contentful, Drupal/Acquia, Akeneo, Bynder, Tealium), and multi-platform mobile/web applications (Flutter, React JS). The firm maintains certifications across these stacks, including AWS Select Consulting Partner status, Oracle Generative AI and AI Vector Search credentials, Sage Certified Consultant designations (Financial, Distribution, Manufacturing, Technology, Developer), and ISTQB/Katalon QA credentials.

The business model is multi-stream professional services and managed services: enterprise digital transformation consulting, ERP implementation and customization, e-commerce platform implementation, ongoing support (levels 0–3), QA/testing, and custom application development, with Sage X3 software resale adding a product/recurring component. Customers are predominantly large enterprises across media (Canal+, Dailymotion), healthcare (IQVIA, Keolis Santé), energy (PETRONAS), luxury/retail (OLMIX), logistics (Ceva Logistics, Bolloré), real estate (JLL), hospitality (Accor), and chemicals (Arkema), with go-to-market via direct enterprise sales, the Havas CX network, and partner co-selling. Pricing is custom, project-scoped, and typically contracted on multi-year engagements.
