The recent Techfest Korea 2024 event attracted the attention of many international startups and investors. Attending the event were Mr. Eric Vuong, Chairman of HVA Group, along with Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Hoang Minh and the Techfest Vietnam delegation. This is an opportunity for Vietnam and Korea to discuss investment incentives and startup resource development between the two countries.
Vietnam has successfully organized many international Techfest events in countries such as the US, South Korea, Singapore, and Australia since 2019. These events have contributed to promoting Vietnam's innovative startup ecosystem, fostering connections between domestic businesses and organizations with international resources. This event is also a preparation step for the national Techfest at the end of the year, continuing to build a bridge between Vietnam and the world in the field of innovative startups.
Representing HVA was Mr. Eric Vuong, Chairman of FUNDGO and Chairman of HVA Investment Company (HVA Group), who emphasized the importance of investing in pioneering fields such as Blockchain, AI and Fintech. HVA's goal in the next two years is to increase its investment capital to 50 million USD, while maintaining its leading position in these important technology fields. International cooperation, especially with Korean partners, will play an important role in HVA's development strategy.
In addition, Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Hoang Minh delivered the opening speech, highlighting the role of Techfest in connecting the Vietnamese startup community with the international community. Since 2015, Techfest has become an important initiative to promote innovative startups in Vietnam. The event is not only a platform to connect businesses but also an opportunity for international investors to better understand the startup potential in Vietnam.
An important highlight at Techfest Korea 2024 is the participation of HVA's strategic partners, especially HanaGold Company. HanaGold shared its market expansion strategy and the 4.0 Gold Shop business model, combining online and offline sales channels.
The special feature of this model is the 24/7 online gold accumulation solution, allowing users to accumulate small amounts of money from only 100,000 VND. In addition, HanaGold also introduces gold identification and traceability technology, a breakthrough solution in the gold and gemstone industry. The company is looking for a strategic partner in Korea to expand and deploy these solutions in the international market.
In the future, HVA Group hopes to continue promoting cooperation programs on human resource exchange, sharing management models and supporting the development of innovative startups between Vietnam and Korea. This cooperation not only creates new business opportunities but also contributes to the sustainable development of both countries in the field of technology and innovation.
