Phuong Tran, Deputy CEO of THP Beverage Group, will share the story of how her entrepreneurial family overcame significant hurdles to grow their company and compete against international industry giants. She will review the leadership qualities her family clung to throughout their journey, the strategies they developed and employed to grow from nothing to Vietnam's leading consumer goods public company, and how her family evaluated Coca-Cola's 2.5 billion buyout offer—ultimately turning it down to remain in control of THP's brand and company success.

Hosted by The Adam Smith Society Rice MBA Chapter, Asia Business Student Association and Rice Business Alumni Relations.
