Across Southeast Asia, xTool users are already turning these opportunities into real businesses. Arlyn Marie, a mother of two from the Philippines and a former bank marketing assistant, turned her handmade craft hobby into a personalized products business with xTool. By selling customized keepsakes at local markets, she generates around **US$500 in revenue at a single market event**. Her business income eventually surpassed her full-time salary, enabling her to become a full-time entrepreneur while gaining greater flexibility to spend time with her children. "Creation is human nature. Even as the digital and virtual worlds continue to flourish, we believe there is enduring value in creating something extraordinary in the physical world. At xTool, we bring together hardware, software, and community to empower everyday people to create in the physical world. Vietnam is a major manufacturing hub with an abundance of creative talent. Together with our local partner Viettel, we hope to empower more people in Vietnam to create locally, turn their ideas into tangible products, and build businesses of their own." — **Howard Zhong, Head of EMEA & Emerging Markets, xTool** The growing importance of in-person technology experiences in Vietnam can also be seen in the retail sector. In July 2026, DJI opened its first Authorized Retail Store in Vietnam at Saigon Centre in Ho Chi Minh City, offering hands-on product experiences, professional consultation, and creator workshops. For xTool, similar experiences could go a step further by allowing customers to see personalized products being made on the spot and explore practical applications for their own businesses. Through its partnership with Viettel, xTool aims to bring these experiences and business opportunities closer to Vietnamese consumers and entrepreneurs, combining its product innovation and global experience with Viettel’s local market capabilities. "Vietnam’s entrepreneurial spirit and growing interest in personalized products create exciting opportunities for new technologies. Our partnership with xTool brings together creative tools and local market capabilities, allowing us to explore how these technologies can help Vietnamese consumers, entrepreneurs, and businesses develop new products and commercial opportunities.
