The DYEA was formed through the merger of the Dong Nai and the former Binh Phuoc Young Entrepreneurs Associations. It now brings together more than 700 business owners across the province.

Over time, the association has continued to affirm its role as a platform that connects and supports young entrepreneurs, thereby contributing to the province’s socio-economic development. In recent years, it has strengthened member networks, improved activity quality, and rolled out a wide range of training, trade promotion, and support programs to help members adapt to digital transformation and international integration.

Addressing the event, Standing Deputy Secretary of the PPC Ton Ngoc Hanh emphasized that enterprises and entrepreneurs play a central role in the development of both Dong Nai and the country. The province currently boasts an extensive industrial park system and a modern transport network with major regional and national projects, notably Long Thanh International Airport. Its investment and business environment has created favorable conditions for the business community to grow.

For the DYEA, provincial leaders expressed their hope that the organization and its members would continue to promote dynamism and creativity in business activities, joining the province in seizing new development opportunities. With Dong Nai expected to evolve into a major urban center in the future, this presents favorable conditions for young entrepreneurs to tap into their potential and advantages.

Accordingly, the province encourages the association to expand its scale further and build a strong organization worthy of its status as a leading economic hub. At the same time, it is expected to strengthen cooperation and connectivity with other localities, particularly Ho Chi Minh City, in order to create spillover effects and strengthen the business community. Dong Nai also reaffirmed its readiness to coordinate, support, and listen to businesses' feedback to jointly drive local development.
