LETTER FROM FOUNDING CHAIRMAN TO THE ECOSYSTEM TEAM ON TRADITIONAL DAY


On the morning of July 19, 2025, SPORTS DAY—the largest annual sporting event of our Ecosystem—unfolded in full energy at Gia Dinh Stadium (Ho Chi Minh City). The event brought together more than 500 athletes from six member companies: Newtecons, Ricons, SOL E&C, BM Windows, BOHO, and DB – Beyond Design & Build, along with hundreds of enthusiastic supporters who fueled the vibrant atmosphere of the day.
From the very first moments, the stadium came alive with color and excitement. Each company brought its own distinctive spirit—expressed through playing styles, team dynamics, and the passionate cheers of their supporters. But more than competition, SPORTS DAY was a true celebration of togetherness, where six unique shades blended into one. Every step, every effort, and every cheer echoed the same message: unity, connection, and shared purpose.
More than just a test of physical strength, SPORTS DAY created a rare opportunity for members across the Ecosystem to stand side by side—not in meetings or on construction sites, but on the field—where the essence of teamwork came through in every pass, every call for support, and every moment of resilience.
In this collective picture, DB may have stood quietly—but with intention. With a spirit of dedication, fair play, and sincere connection, every moment on the field became a meaningful experience. Together, we overcame pressure, shared laughter, exchanged encouragement, and truly lived the values of team spirit—not only with our own colleagues, but with those we met for the first time, united by a common rhythm.
SPORTS DAY 2025 has come to an end, but its echoes remain. Because the true value of the event wasn’t found on a scoreboard—but in the shared effort, the handshakes after matches, the mutual respect, and the feeling that we—six companies, one Ecosystem—stood together as one.
A memorable celebration of sport—not only because of the competition, but because of the genuine connections, lasting memories, and the collective spirit that will continue to accompany us on every step forward.
On the morning of July 12, 2025, more than 80 employees from six companies within the Ecosystem—Newtecons, Ricons, SOL E&C, BM Windows, BOHO, and DB—gathered at the Binh Chau – Phuoc Buu Nature Reserve to plant 1,500 Hopea odorata (Sao Den) trees, contributing to the preservation of Southeast Vietnam’s precious coastal forests.
This nature reserve, one of the few remaining primeval forests in the region, spans over 11,000 hectares across Xuyen Moc District, Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province (now part of Ho Chi Minh City). It is home to a unique convergence of diverse ecosystems—ranging from mangroves and coastal sand forests to evergreen tropical forests—forming an exceptionally rich and rare biodiversity complex.
To kick off the event, Ms. Ha Tieu Anh, representing the Ecosystem Supervisory Board, shared with employees the significance of the tree-planting activity in celebration of the Ecosystem’s Traditional Day. As the Ecosystem continues to implement several projects in Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province, it not only creates jobs for local communities but also contributes to sustainable regional development. This afforestation initiative reaffirms the Ecosystem’s long-term commitment to supporting local growth through environmental restoration, forest rehabilitation, and biodiversity conservation.
Following the opening remarks, participants planted 1,500 trees together, helping to reforest degraded areas and restore native vegetation. The event was carried out with close guidance from the Reserve Management Board, who provided training on sapling selection and proper planting techniques.
The event was marked by a vibrant and collaborative spirit, with employees taking pride in playing an active role in protecting this “green lung” of the coastal ecosystem—home to hundreds of rare and endangered species listed in both the Vietnamese and global Red Data Books.
At DB, sustainable development is not just a strategic direction but a genuine and ongoing commitment. It represents the collective will of the entire organization—from leadership to every individual—in creating tangible value for the community and the environment. We believe that even small contributions, when driven by responsibility and unity, can create lasting, positive, and far-reaching impacts.
This past weekend marked a significant milestone in the journey to create new architectural icons in Vung Tau. Newtecons and SOL E&C – two of Vietnam’s leading Design & Build contractors – officially joined hands with Five Star Group to kick off two international 5-star hotel–residence complexes: Five Star Odyssey and Five Star Poseidon.
Strategically located along Thuy Van Boulevard – one of the city’s most vibrant coastal roads – both developments are envisioned to become new architectural landmarks, elevating Vung Tau’s hospitality offerings and reshaping the city’s urban identity.
As the General Design Consultant, DB is proud to spearhead the design strategy for both projects – from initial concept ideation to detailed design management. Beyond setting the aesthetic vision, DB plays a key role as a continuous bridge between the investor, D&B contractors, and specialized consultants, ensuring every architectural and technical solution is aligned under a unified vision.
DB is joined by a team of highly experienced partners including MH Architects, Space Engineering, Acons, and RFR – top-tier consultants in architecture, structure, and MEP design. With its strong coordination and leadership capabilities, DB ensures close collaboration between design disciplines, optimizing cross-functional synergy to deliver a comprehensive design system that balances artistic flair with technical precision.
These two landmark projects not only showcase DB’s exceptional capabilities as a design lead, but also demonstrate the seamless collaboration among companies within the Ecosystem – from conceptualization to detailed design, construction, and final completion. The strategic partnership with Five Star Group further reinforces DB and its ecosystem partners’ positions as pioneers, shaping modern urban landscapes and enhancing the quality of life for communities.
Alongside our commitment to sustainable business growth, supporting universities and empowering students in their career journeys has always been a top priority for DB and its ecosystem partners.
In that spirit, on the morning of June 16, 2025, DB was proud to join Newtecons, Ricons, SOL E&C, BM Windows, and BOHO at the “Sketches to Skylines” networking event, hosted by Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture.
This meaningful program served as a real-world connection between academia and industry, offering valuable inspiration and practical insights for students in the fields of Architecture and Construction.
Representing the ecosystem, the event welcomed the presence of:
From the university side, participants included:
At the event, Mr. Nguyễn Bá Dương delivered his very first sharing session with students of the Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture.
With a warm yet insightful approach, he recounted his entrepreneurial journey — from the early days of starting out to building and developing some of the most prominent construction brands in Vietnam.
Through real-life stories and invaluable lessons drawn from years of dedication, he inspired the young generation with messages of belief, ambition, and pride in contributing to landmark projects that carry both national and international significance.
Also as part of the program, Mr. Nguyễn Đức Lợi – Chief Architect at DB – delivered a heartfelt sharing about his career journey, from the early days fresh out of university to eventually finding his calling and long-term commitment with the companies in the ecosystem.
Drawing from his real-world experiences, Mr. Lợi offered students valuable insights and motivation in shaping their future paths and choosing the right working environment to grow their careers.
He emphasized that to go far in this profession, young people need more than just passion — they must nurture big ambitions, stay persistent in pursuing their goals, and continuously seek knowledge. Most importantly, professional ethics and kindness are core values that should guide them at every step of their development.
Speaking about the ecosystem – which includes Newtecons, Ricons, SOL E&C, BM Windows, BOHO, and DB – Mr. Nguyễn Bá Dương reaffirmed the companies’ shared commitment to building a work environment that values individual capabilities and fosters talent development.
He respectfully referred to Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture as the “cradle” that has nurtured many generations of leaders and managers who are now holding key roles across the ecosystem.
One of the program’s highlights was an open Q&A session between students and business representatives. The atmosphere became vibrant and engaging as students confidently asked practical questions about career paths in the construction industry, job opportunities, recruitment criteria, and the skills needed to thrive in a professional environment.
Mr. Nguyễn Bá Dương and other company leaders listened attentively and responded to each question with openness, sincerity, and a spirit of encouragement.
Their thoughtful guidance helped students gain a clearer picture of future career possibilities and recognize the importance of putting in the effort today to build the foundation for tomorrow.
More than just a networking event, the program truly became a heartfelt moment of inspiration – a spark that lit the fire within.
With a solid foundation and strategic vision, the companies within the ecosystem will continue to serve as a launchpad for the younger generation on their career journeys — helping them turn passion into reality, true to the spirit of “Sketches to Skylines.”
In the time ahead, the partnership between the companies and Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture is expected to grow even stronger and more expansive, creating opportunities for students to gain comprehensive knowledge, experience real-world work environments, and develop themselves in a well-rounded way.
This will empower them to step confidently into their professional paths and contribute to the creation of sustainable, meaningful projects that proudly carry the mark of Vietnam in this era of national growth and transformation.
We’re excited to announce the opening of our new office — a thoughtfully transformed workspace designed to be modern, minimalist, and full of creative energy, in collaboration with BOHO Décor.
With the aim of fostering a professional yet inspiring environment, DB has reimagined its office with a focus on clean lines and refined details. A neutral cream base is brought to life with bold brick-red accents, while a balanced mix of materials — from fabric and wood to metal — creates a space that feels both polished and welcoming.
The new layout embraces an open-plan concept, with clustered team workstations that connect seamlessly to surrounding functional areas. This setup encourages collaboration, openness, and a vibrant work culture. Generous glass panels invite natural light into the space, working in harmony with a smart lighting system to keep the atmosphere energized and focused throughout the day.
More than just a workplace, the new DB office embodies the values we stand for: professionalism, creativity, and integrity. We believe this space will spark fresh ideas and fuel our continued growth.
Let’s welcome this exciting new chapter together — where new stories begin, written by the people of DB!
With a mindset of learning and a desire to contribute to national projects, DB recently visited Long Thanh International Airport – one of Vietnam’s largest infrastructure developments.
The visit took place as the central terminal’s roof structure was being lifted, giving DB’s architects and engineers a close-up look at advanced construction methods and the dedication of teams working around the clock.
As the coordinator of construction design documentation, DB is proud to facilitate collaboration among leading domestic and international partners within the Vietur Consortium, which includes major names such as Newtecons, Ricons, SOL E&C, Vinaconex, and others, under the leadership of Turkey’s IC Ictas Group. This role requires agility, precision, and a strong sense of responsibility—qualities that define DB’s approach.
The visit not only provided valuable experience but also reinforced DB’s commitment to quality, progress, and trust. Long Thanh Airport is more than a large-scale project—it symbolizes innovation, technology, and sustainable growth, and DB is honored to be a vital part of its realization.
This morning, all members of DB Company officially reunited after Tet holiday, kicking off the year with a lively and energetic spring opening ceremony – a joyful event brimming with optimism for a promising new chapter.
During the gathering, Founder Chairman Nguyen Ba Duong, together with the Board of Directors, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Tam, shared heartfelt messages and inspiring encouragement. Their words fueled a renewed sense of determination, motivating everyone to strive for remarkable breakthroughs in 2025.
As we step into the vibrant Year of the Snake, DB company extends warmest wishes to our valued customers, trusted partners, and dedicated employees. May this year bring prosperity, success, and countless achievements for all!
