I am attending this event 📌 Register to attend: https://lnkd.in/gN2gHpUF 📌 Deadline: 22th September 2023 ----------------------- For the last few years, Vietnam has constantly gone up in the Global Startup Ecosystem Index, the Global Innovation Index (GII) and the Global Competitiveness Index (GCI). However, the investment potential of the Vietnamese innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem has not been exploited to the best. This is partly due to the lack of visibility of Vietnam’s advanced technologies and growing startups in the eyes of foreign investors. With the recent investment by 500 Global for $143M to fund Southeast Asia startups (link in comments), this is a great time to learn more about the potential of the Vietnamese startup ecosystem. Understanding this, Lab2Market - BK Holdings, in collaboration with SURF 2023, Songhan Incubator, NSSC, BK Fund, Swiss EP, DNES, ENOUVO, HANISA, AWS Startups, and Vinet, organizes 'Vietnam - Silicon Valley Investors Summit' with the aim to: (1) Showcase Vietnam’s deep-tech startup investment worthiness (2) Increase brand awareness of the Vietnamese Entrepreneurship & Innovation ecosystem. EVENT OVERVIEW 📍Time: 8.30AM - 11.00AM, 29th September 2023 (UTC 7) 📍Format: Hybrid Offline at BKH-Duy Tan Innovation Centre (03 Quang Trung, Hai Chau, Da Nang) Online, Zoom Platform PARTICIPANTS 🟠 05 Selected startups from Vietnam 🟠 50 Investors from America, Europe and Asia 🟠 50 Mentors, Coaches, Leaders from universities, businesses, and government 📌Register to attend: https://lnkd.in/gN2gHpUF 📌Deadline: 22th September 2023 #lab2market #startups #incubation #investment #bkholdings #hust #swissep #nssc #bkfund
