Japanese
investment funds are paying more attention to Vietnamese companies, especially
those operating in new growth fields such as medicine and information
technology.
According to Japan’s leading economic and
financial daily Nikkei, venture fund Dream Incubator Inc. and Orix Corp. are

Japanese medical equipment manufacturers.
