A network of innovation and development hubs across Vietnam — combining the strengths of a social enterprise, community hub, research center, startup incubator, and the arts & creative sector under one roof.
Vietnam is entering a new era shaped by artificial intelligence, digital transformation, climate change, demographic shifts, and global economic restructuring. Innovation ecosystems are growing — but significant gaps remain between research, entrepreneurship, community needs, and international collaboration.
Universities struggle to translate research into impact. Startups lack access to networks and evidence-based support. Communities remain disconnected from innovation opportunities. A new model is needed — one that brings knowledge creation, community building, and venture development together.
Sustainable revenue through executive education, research & consulting, innovation retreats, co-working spaces, and international fellowships — reinvested into community programs, scholarships, research, and startup support.
Applied research on AI and digital transformation, entrepreneurship, sustainable development, future skills, governance, climate resilience, and community development — publications, policy briefs, datasets, and open-access knowledge.
An inclusive space for students, entrepreneurs, researchers, local communities, and international experts — public lectures, networking events, mentorship, community projects, and innovation challenges.
Support for early-stage ventures and social enterprises — mentorship, investor access, pilot testing, market intelligence, and international exposure, focused on ventures creating both economic and social value.
A bridge between Vietnam and global innovation ecosystems — through partnerships with universities, research institutes, foundations, development organizations, startup networks, and private-sector partners.
Within five years —
— and a sustainable model proving that social impact and financial viability go together.
The long-term goal
To establish Vietnam as a rising Global South platform for innovation, responsible technology, entrepreneurship, and inclusive development — proving that research, community, and enterprise can work together to create lasting societal impact.
