The search for Vietnam’s TOP100 Judges’ Choice winner starts now!
The TOP100 programme is an annual startup searched helmed by e27 across 14 major APAC cities. For two years running, the TOP100 Startup Search has become an integral component of the annual Echelon Asia Summit, held annually in Singapore.
In anticipation of our third TOP100 challenge, we’re starting our startup search this coming Echelon Vietnam 2016. Qualifying startups can expect to pitch to a 1,000-strong audience consisting of investors and a panel of international judges.
Shortlisted qualifiers will subsequently be given the opportunity to exhibit at Echelon Asia Summit 2017, while the top 10 startups will battle and pitch on stage for the coveted winner’s title.
For starters, Vietnam’s TOP100 Judges’ Choice Award winner will walk away with the Microsoft BizSpark prize. This will include US$40,000 in Azure credits, free Microsoft software, tech support and Azure cloud hosting. Also, did we mention five developer accounts for three years?
