Webinar connects Vietnamese startups in Australia

The event was co-organised by Startup Vietnam Frontier Australia (SVF-AU) and Hanoi Youth Union and received huge support from both Vietnamese Students in Australia (SVAU) and Vietnam-Australia Innovation Network (NIC-AU).

The purpose of the seminar was to share startup ideas whilst supporting and connecting Vietnamese overseas startups with resources from the country in an effort to promote sustainable development among the Vietnamese start-up eco-system in Australia.

The function also marked the beginning of the partnership to develop a startup and innovation network among the Hanoi Youth Union, venture capital funds, Vietnamese universities, along with student associations in the United States, the UK, France, and Australia.

During the 90-minute seminar, participants discussed a host of issues relating to resources and support policies and startup advice from the Vietnamese startup community both at home and abroad. In addition, strategies and plans for domestic investment funds with the Vietnamese startup community in Australia were also raised for discussion.

After being livestreamed on Facebook for one day, the video of the seminar attracted a total of 20,000 views and received 1,400 interactions, comments, and shares.
