Monthly StartUp & Entrepreneurship event in Vietnam

Start Me Up: is a monthly event, which is hosted by a group of young entrepreneurs with a deep passion for

startup. We realized that startup community in Vietnam is still at its pre-matured stage. Thus, we aim to create a place where young entrepreneurs can meet, network,

share experience and support each other.

StartMeUp has happened 9 times: since May 2012. More than 1000 people have participated. More than 22 guest speakers.
