The ceremony was held on Thursday in celebration of Vietnamese entrepreneurship, as the final round of the 2022 VietChallenge is scheduled to take place at the site, the second biggest stock exchange in the world, on December 2.
Ambassador Giang insisted the event as a good opportunity for Vietchallenge to be going to the world.
“I believe that the success stories of Nasdaq and of the listed companies in the Nasdaq would be an inspiration for Vietchalleng contestants, organizers and participants to move forward for the success of their own businesses, of their own future on innovation, and for the success of Vietnam as well as the success of Vietnam and its partnership. I believe that in the near future one of your contestants will be listed here on the Nasdaq,” said Giang.
Vietchallenge is known as the largest fundraising contest for Vietnamese-born startups around the world. This year, the final round of the event will be jointly held by the National Innovation Center (NIC) under the Ministry of Planning and Investment.
