KisStartup's AI4Innovation project was born to meet the growing demand for artificial intelligence (AI) applications and data management in businesses, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and startups. For these businesses, AI is not only an innovation tool but also the key to enhancing competitiveness, optimizing operational processes, and expanding scale sustainably.

As always, the beginning of a new year is a time for our team to reflect on the results of the previous year and to prepare for the plans ahead. Here are some key metrics that we would like to share:

Innovation Mindset & Tools at Hanoi University of Industry is part of a cooperation program between the Youth Union of Hanoi University of Industry (SIP HAUI Club) and VinTech city. In this program, KisStartup acts as a professional training unit for not only students who have a startup project or idea but also teachers in the school with the desire to create core lecturers who can sponsor, support and directly supervise ideas or projects coming out of Hanoi University of Industry.

On November 18, 2019, KisStartup officially signed a cooperation agreement with Minh Tri Startup Youth Fund. Through this, KisStartup and the Minh Tri Startup Youth Fund will cooperate to either finance or sponsor the business projects of young people living or working in Cau Giay District. The collaboration aims to support projects with innovative business models located in the area and focusing on agriculture or service sectors.

In 2 days of October 11 and 12, 2019, KisStartup in collaboration with VinTech City conducted training for 50 lecturers from 24 universities from the Central and the North of Vietnam, at the University of Technology, Hanoi National University. The training course focused on providing basic tools, basic concepts in innovation and entrepreneurship to help lecturers with understanding of innovation tools while using these tools in supporting startups and developing the activities of their Innovation and Entrepreneurship clubs at school in the coming period.

KisStartup is happy to announce that we have been selected among 112 organisations as applicants to participate in Frontier Incubator and get support from Australian Government.
