Within the IDAP Project – Inclusive Digital Acceleration Program, KisStartup has implemented the Dual Transformation model, combining Digitalization and Green Transformation. This model integrates digital technology and environmental protection solutions to create sustainable value for SMEs, cooperatives, and local businesses in Lao Cai and Son La.

Three flagship pilot initiatives implemented:

Four digital service providers have participated in the Vietnam E-Commerce and Digital Technology Application Forum. This marks their first direct involvement at the heart of the digital transformation wave, where concepts are tested and turned into practical solutions.

To promote the connectivity of the national digital transformation ecosystem, the IDAP Project is organizing a learning tour at the Vietnam Sourcing Forum 2025 in Ho Chi Minh City from September 4-6, 2025, for prominent digital service providers.

The kickoff event for the "Connect to Conquer Digital Transformation" program on July 14, 2025, has just concluded, yet it leaves behind an intriguing question: Is digital transformation truly different when led by those who once feared technology? The answer lies in each story shared, in every spark of realization when someone discovered, "I can do this."

On May 8, 2025, at the Lao Cai Galaxy Hotel, the event "Unraveling the Knot – Lean Digital Transformation for Cooperatives and Enterprises" took place in an exciting atmosphere, bringing together 58 cooperatives from various sectors across the province, along with the active participation of 15 lecturers and students from the Thai Nguyen University branch in Lao Cai.
