On the afternoon of December 11, a panel of experts and judges from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Business Startup Support Center (BSSC), large enterprises, and intermediary organizations supporting SIBs selected the top 3 best start-ups.
That is Survival Skills Vietnam (SSVN) - a company specializing in providing training courses on survival skills, emergency preparedness and outdoor adventure skills.
As a professional training provider, SSVN offers a variety of programs to enhance the physical and mental strength of individuals and groups. Through practical courses, participants are equipped with essential survival techniques that can be applied in both wild and urban environments.
The company's training courses focus on practical skills such as first aid, fire-making, shelter building and orientation, ensuring participants can cope with a variety of challenging situations.
The second start-up is Ma Hai Vietnam Bread Joint Stock Company (Ma Hai Bread brand) - specializing in providing traditional bread products with strong Vietnamese flavors.
Ma Hai Bread is known for its excellent quality, combining fresh ingredients and special processing methods, bringing an attractive culinary experience to customers.
Not only providing simple bread, Ma Hai Bread also built a brand story associated with the care and affection of women in the family, like the image of "Ma Hai" - a gentle, devoted mother.
The project aims to develop bakery chains in major cities in Vietnam and abroad, with the goal of making the Ma Hai Bread brand a familiar name to consumers.
The remaining start-up is Veritas Viet Nam Joint Stock Company (NetZero Pallet brand) specializing in producing pallets made entirely from coconut shells - a popular agricultural by-product.
NetZero Pallets are as durable as wooden pallets but 20% cheaper, saving costs and facilitating customs clearance. The pallets’ design allows for stacking, saving up to 70% of warehouse space, while providing a new source of income for local farmers.
The above 3 start-ups will be given the opportunity to participate more deeply in acceleration programs and exhibitions at InnoEx 2025 (an annual international event promoting innovation and growth for the Vietnamese and Southeast Asian business communities) to connect with investors and international partners from 60 countries and participate in international exhibitions in Southeast Asia.
The competition is part of the “Program to promote connection and cooperation between SIBs and pioneering enterprises” within the framework of the ISEE-COVID project co-implemented by UNDP, the Agency for Enterprise Development (AED), and the Ministry of Planning and Investment .
