Ho Chi Minh City University of Culture has just held the opening ceremony and selection round of the 2025 Startup and Innovation Competition. The competition is jointly organized by 3 universities: Ho Chi Minh City University of Culture, Ho Chi Minh City University of Law and Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture.
Sharing about the competition, Associate Professor Dr. Lam Nhan, Principal of Ho Chi Minh City University of Culture, said that this year's startup competition was jointly organized by 3 universities training in specific fields in the fields of architecture-planning, construction, fine arts, law and culture- tourism ... Notably, this is a startup and innovation competition specifically for the cultural field, held for the first time in Vietnam.
According to Associate Professor Dr. Lam Nhan, the competition not only connects educational, cultural, creative and economic values, but also creates space for ideas on art, architecture, media, tourism, culture, intellectual property, technology and economics to be realized, contributing to sustainable development.
Notably, although it has just started, in a short time, the competition has had more than 100 registered projects, including students from outside Ho Chi Minh City and international students. After intensive training sessions on writing skills, presentation and project video creation, the organizing committee received 74 complete concept designs from the competing teams.
To evaluate the projects, the organizing committee has divided them into 3 professional panels to select and judge, corresponding to the 3 key areas of the competition: culture, economy, and technology. This is to create conditions for the projects to be evaluated in depth, helping to maximize the strengths of each group of contestants.
According to the plan, the competition consists of 3 rounds and after the selection round, 15 excellent projects will enter the semi-finals taking place from July 10 to August 20. The first prize of the competition has a total value of 100 million VND; 2 second prizes, each worth 80 million VND; 2 third prizes, each worth 75 million VND and many other prizes.
The teams that enter the final round will be supported by the Organizing Committee to connect with experts to develop innovative startup projects. The projects that win first, second, and third prizes will be consulted if they want to participate in the "Students with Startup Ideas" competition organized by the Ministry of Education and Training.
In addition, the winning project will receive support to apply for funding to incubate innovation and startup projects from the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Science and Technology with a value of 40 million VND/project and many other awards.
