Since 2018, this playground has welcomed students from 48 high schools, 94 universities and 31 startup groups from many countries, thereby creating a wide creative connection network.

Many award-winning ideas have been upgraded into products and services applied in practice, contributing to solving social problems, protecting the environment and promoting the digital transformation process.

According to VNA, the 8th competition season in 2025 - taking place from August 9 to 10 - recorded a record number of 189 projects, nearly 3 times the average of previous seasons. The participation of 18 teams from India, Indonesia, Russia, the UK, Hong Kong (China), Myanmar, France, Japan and the US has made the competition an international meeting place for the young community passionate about innovation.

The trend of applying artificial intelligence (AI), digital technology and sustainable development goals dominated this year's projects. From voice assistants for cars, AI-integrated drone inventory systems, centralized learning platforms to plans to recycle agricultural by-products into new products, many ideas were highly appreciated for their practical applicability and commercialization potential.

The organizers believe that the greatest value of Bach Khoa Innovation lies not only in the rewards, but also in creating a challenging environment for young people to hone their research, presentation, and investment calling skills, while also inspiring the spirit of daring to think and dare to do.

After participating, many teams have expanded cooperation with domestic and foreign businesses and universities, continuing to bring products to market.
