Funding Is About More Than Raising Money
In the startup world, fundraising is often viewed as a milestone of growth. For Tony Pham, however, the value of an investment round is not defined simply by the amount of money entering a business, but by how effectively that capital can help a project move faster, reach further, and build a stronger foundation for sustainable growth.
This is why the projects within Tony's ecosystem are now entering a stage where strategic partnerships and additional resources can play an increasingly important role. Once a technology platform has a product, a team, and a clear market direction, the question is no longer simply whether it should be built, but how it can scale quickly while maintaining strong governance and operational capabilities.
For Tony Pham, investors are therefore more than capital providers. They can be market experts, businesses with established customer networks, technology organizations, or members of the Vietnamese community around the world who want to contribute to ventures being built from Vietnam.
Deli Group: From an Ecosystem Vision to the Need for Acceleration
Deli Group is one of the central projects in Tony Pham's long-term strategy. Rather than focusing on a single standalone product, the ecosystem is designed around several complementary areas, including e-commerce, logistics, technology and AI, and digital media.
Within this structure, Deligo focuses on logistics and mobility; Delippy develops in the direction of e-commerce and the digitalization of business activities; DeliLabs provides technology capabilities, including websites, applications, AI chatbots, and software solutions; while media and technology infrastructure form supporting layers behind the ecosystem.
This interconnected structure creates a different fundraising proposition from that of a startup built around a single product. Capital can support not only the development of an application, but also team expansion, technology development, market expansion, marketing, operations, and the ability to connect different platforms within the ecosystem.
In other words, investment in one component has the potential to generate value across the broader ecosystem.
ChihaiGlobal: A Project Born from a Very Vietnamese Need
While Deli Group places greater emphasis on digital infrastructure and business operations, ChihaiGlobal represents a different vision: creating a bridge for Vietnamese communities living around the world.
Vietnamese people living overseas may be part of highly developed societies, yet they continue to encounter everyday needs that are deeply familiar—finding trusted services, connecting with Vietnamese businesses, accessing healthcare and beauty services, discovering restaurants, arranging transportation, exploring real estate and travel opportunities, or handling matters connected to their home country.
From this gap, ChihaiGlobal is being developed with the ambition of becoming a global connection platform for the Vietnamese community.
This also creates an interesting market proposition from an investment perspective. Rather than looking only at an application, investors can see the broader opportunity behind it: a large community, an interconnected service network, and the potential to connect users, businesses, and partners across multiple countries.
For Tony Pham, the value of ChihaiGlobal therefore extends beyond technology. Its value also lies in community trust—a form of value that cannot be created by code alone.
From MegaCM to a Philosophy of Building from Reality
Before moving deeper into technology, Tony Pham spent years developing business activities in Australia, including MegaCM. Through direct experience in operating businesses, he encountered practical challenges involving customers, cash flow, personnel, partners, timelines, and scalability.
Those experiences have become an important part of the way Tony approaches startups.
A project seeking investment cannot rely solely on an attractive idea. Investors need to see a real market, genuine demand, a viable operating model, a capable team, and the potential to create long-term value.
That is why Tony Pham's fundraising story does not begin with the question of how to “find money.” Instead, it begins with building a strong enough foundation for capital to find the place where it can create meaningful value.
Australia: A Gateway to International Resources
Australia holds a special position in this journey.
It is not only where Tony previously built businesses and professional relationships, but also a market with a substantial Vietnamese community and a mature business and technology environment.
Through engagements with entrepreneurs, professionals, and businesses in Australia, Tony Pham has gained opportunities to introduce projects being developed in Vietnam, explore partnerships, and expand relationships that could potentially become foundations for future cooperation and investment.
It is a noteworthy direction: bringing international investment opportunities to projects built by Vietnamese entrepreneurs, rather than simply taking Vietnamese products overseas.
For an entrepreneur whose journey is closely connected with the overseas Vietnamese community, this may be one of the most meaningful values Tony hopes to create.
Raising Capital to Build Together, Not Simply to Own Together
At this stage, Deli Group and its related ventures face an important challenge: how to transform potential into measurable and sustainable growth.
That requires more than capital. It requires investment in technology, people, and markets, while also bringing in individuals and organizations with experience, networks, and a long-term mindset.
Tony Pham is therefore looking to open the door to investors and strategic partners who align with the vision and development path of each project.
Because a good investment should not be measured only by the amount of money injected into a company. It should also be measured by what that investment creates afterward: a better product, a broader market, a stronger team, and an ecosystem capable of generating more sustainable value.
A New Chapter Is Taking Shape
From Australia to Vietnam, from MegaCM to Deli Group and ChihaiGlobal, Tony Pham is moving from the role of a business builder toward that of an ecosystem creator.
The road ahead will undoubtedly bring challenges. Fundraising has never been easy, particularly for technology ventures that require time to demonstrate their scale, efficiency, and long-term potential.
Yet at this stage, the most important question may no longer be “What can Tony Pham build?” but rather, “With the right resources and strategic partners, how far can these projects go?”
The answer may ultimately lie beyond the numbers of a single funding round. It may be found in the ability to transform ideas created by Vietnamese entrepreneurs into products and platforms capable of competing in international markets.
Tony Pham – Chairman & Founder of Deli Group, ChihaiGlobal, and MegaCM – is seeking not only investors, but people who share a common belief: Vietnamese entrepreneurs can build technology platforms of their own and take them to the world.
