A technology playground that brings together highly experienced talents.

VPBank Technology Hackathon 2025 - Senior Track Finals.

The VPBank Technology Hackathon 2025 - Senior Track final, themed “Hack2Hire: Conquering Technology, Shaping the Future with VPBank,” took place on November 22nd, bringing together over 639 experienced and enthusiastic contestants, representing 138 teams, to compete.

After nearly three months of competition, 21 teams with 83 contestants have advanced to the final round, demonstrating the special appeal of the technology competition organized by VPBank in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS).

VPBank is accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI (Gen AI) projects into both internal operations and digital products, creating a foundation for ideas from the Hackathon competition to be applied in practice.

Building upon that foundation, the VPBank Technology Hackathon 2025 was designed as two consecutive stages to comprehensively leverage its technology workforce. The Junior Track, held earlier this year, was a platform for students and those new to the profession, while the Senior Track expanded the difficulty level with more demanding challenges, attracting experienced engineers and fostering healthy competition. This approach helps VPBank both discover young talent and attract seasoned professionals, creating a continuous flow of human resources for its long-term digital transformation strategy.

A key highlight of the Senior Track is the candidates' professional experience, with 70% of applicants having 2-5 years of experience in Information Technology and Data Science . The high registration rate for challenges related to applied AI reflects the technological trends attracting the attention of the engineering community and also represents VPBank's strong investment in its comprehensive digitalization strategy.

Doc2Contract emerged as the champion with its AI Real Estate Collateral Drafting System. This solution utilizes AI to automate the process of extracting, verifying, and drafting documents related to real estate collateral – a high-volume and highly accurate operation in banking.

Doc2Contract's solution was highly praised for its coherent implementation, tight and confident presentation flow, and clear demonstration of systems thinking. The demo ran smoothly, showing that the product had been polished to a high standard, from UI/UX to technical logic. The judges were particularly impressed with the team's innovative integration of advanced AWS Gen AI services (including Amazon Bedrock using Claude-3 and Claude-4.5, Amazon Textract, and Amazon Comprehend) withFPT .AI's specialized Vietnamese document processing solution. This flexible combination demonstrated intelligent thinking in selecting appropriate technologies, achieving over 90% accuracy while reducing contract processing time from days to minutes.

Second prize went to the BK62 team for their Fail & Forward: Embracing Failure with Automated Recovery solution, while Bếp Yêu Thương Digital Platform received third prize for its comprehensive and humane product development.

In the specialized solutions category, awards were given to teams with outstanding strengths in each area: MoE Architect Team received the Trailblazer Innovation Award; Agentity won the Pitch Perfect Award; and Better Version was awarded the Awesome Architecture Award.

In addition to the team award, the organizers also honored 5 individual Hackathon Stars - contestants who demonstrated outstanding abilities throughout the season.

Speaking at the finals, Ms. Tran Thi Diep Anh - Director of Human Resources Management at VPBank - shared about the nearly three-month journey of the competition: “The rounds took place online, but the discussions and work in the chat groups were almost non-stop. I was truly impressed with the spirit and enthusiasm of the contestants.”

Ms. Diep Anh stated that Senior Track primarily attracts personnel with two or more years of experience, but up to 30% of the participants are recent graduates with the ability and spirit to "skip levels," ready to compete with senior professionals. This diversity is what makes VPBank Technology Hackathon 2025 - Senior Track so appealing.

“VPBank recognizes that Hackathons are not just competitions, but more importantly, an essential part of the bank's long-term human resources strategy. Alongside the ongoing and rapid digital transformation, VPBank prioritizes investing in people – the pillar ensuring the sustainability of the entire technology system. Therefore, Hackathon competitions are designed as a talent networking channel, helping the bank find the right people for data, digital banking, operations, and AI projects that are in the process of accelerated deployment,” Ms. Diep Anh emphasized.

Eric Yeo, General Manager of AWS Vietnam, shared: “We are delighted to partner with VPBank in this Hackathon, which showcases Vietnam’s outstanding technological talent and reflects the bank’s success in nurturing future innovators. The solutions presented in the competition are excellent proof that technology professionals can maximize their creative potential when equipped with the right platform.”
