Cross-Border M&A · Investment Advisory · Market Entry
Investing, divesting, or entering a new market — we are the advisors who know Vietnam, Indonesia, and India from the inside out.
Who We Are
INNO Group is a boutique Strategy & Transactions advisory firm specializing in Vietnam, Indonesia, and India. We provide the full depth of a Big 4 transactions practice — M&A advisory, due diligence, valuation, market entry strategy, and post-deal services — with the agility and local intelligence that only a dedicated on-the-ground firm can deliver.
Our team combines former Big 4 advisors, PhD-level local specialists, and deep government and private sector networks across all three markets. We serve Northeast Asian investors and corporations, emerging market companies seeking capital, and Korean public agencies supporting SME internationalization.
Our Coverage
We maintain active on-the-ground operations — not remote coverage — across Vietnam, Indonesia, and India.
Our most established market, with a local subsidiary operational since 2017 and over eight years of accumulated deal experience. We maintain active relationships with government bodies, major corporates, and the investment community across Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.
The largest economy in Southeast Asia and a priority market for Northeast Asian capital. Our Jakarta partner office and established relationships with Bappenas and key industry bodies enable us to originate and execute transactions across Indonesia's high-growth sectors.
India represents one of the most compelling long-term investment destinations in Asia. We provide full-spectrum M&A and investment advisory across India's high-growth sectors through an experienced partner network spanning the country's major commercial centers.
What We Do
From deal origination to post-merger integration, we cover the entire transaction lifecycle — with deep local knowledge at every stage.
Buy-side and sell-side transaction advisory, deal sourcing, target identification, negotiation support, and transaction execution across Vietnam, Indonesia, and India.
Strategic investor matching, fundraising advisory, and global roadshow management connecting Northeast Asian capital with high-growth companies across our three core markets.
Comprehensive market assessment, competitive landscape analysis, localization strategy, partner and buyer matching, and actionable go-to-market roadmaps.
Commercial, financial, and market due diligence drawing on proprietary global databases and hands-on sector expertise — providing the insights that remote advisors simply cannot deliver.
Business valuation, financial modeling, economic feasibility analysis, and investment return assessment calibrated to emerging market dynamics and regulatory environments.
Post-merger integration planning, operational turnaround support, and ongoing in-market advisory — delivered through our resident local teams long after a deal closes.
Why INNO Group
What distinguishes us is not just what we know — it is where we are, who we know, and how long we have been doing this.
Our advisory team brings 20+ years of cross-border experience, including former engagement leaders from EY, PwC, and KPMG across the Indochina and ASEAN region. We deliver institutional-grade analysis with the responsiveness a boutique firm affords.
We embed senior local professionals — including academics affiliated with Fulbright University Vietnam and the Vietnam National University — in every engagement. This is genuine insider knowledge at the advisory level, not outsourced local support.
We maintain direct subscriptions to 10+ premium commercial databases — an investment most boutique firms do not make.
We maintain active relationships with Vietnam's MOIT, NATEC, and NSSC; Indonesia's Bappenas and key industry bodies; and institutional networks across India. These connections enable us to navigate regulatory environments and originate opportunities unavailable through conventional channels.
Our professionals hold certifications spanning accounting, audit, fraud examination, information systems, and project management — including CPA, CIA, CISA, CFE, and PMP. This breadth of qualification underpins the rigor of our analytical work.
Since 2017, we have maintained a physical local subsidiary in Ho Chi Minh City — not a representative office, not a third-party affiliate. Our team lives and works in these markets, giving us a quality of local intelligence that visiting advisors simply cannot replicate.
