One ASEAN Startup Award 2025 Pre-Event in Ho Chi Minh City
Join us for the One ASEAN Startup Award Pre-Event in Ho Chi Minh City on 23 May – an insightful event dedicated to exploring the future of AI and Zero Emission innovation!
After the successful inaugural edition, the ERIA Digital Innovation and Sustainable Economy Centre (E-DISC) is set to host the One ASEAN Startup Award in 2025 to recognise and promote promising innovators that are working to address ASEAN-wide issues. The programme features a series of three pre-events leading up to a final event, all focused on AI and Zero Emission solutions.
The first pre-event is scheduled for 23 May in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam, where ten finalist startups from around the world will pitch their innovative ideas. In addition, honourable guests representing startup ecosystems and policymakers are invited to discuss about ASEAN’s startup scenes, with a particular focus on AI and Zero Emission endeavours.
