12:48 | 10/04/2026
The “Green Startup Exchange Webinar: From Green Ideas to Growth”, organized by The Asia Foundation, took place on April 10, 2026, attracting the participation of numerous startups in Vietnam at early and growth stages. The event aimed to support businesses in transitioning toward sustainable business models while enhancing their access to green finance in the context of increasingly urgent sustainability requirements.

The webinar was designed to be concise yet comprehensive, covering core aspects of the green startup ecosystem. It began with opening remarks and orientation from the organizers, followed by a session on founder journeys, focusing on fundraising experiences, pitch deck development, and key lessons learned. The program also provided an overview of funding options, including equity, debt, and blended finance, while clarifying investor expectations and criteria for green projects. In addition, sessions on green financial investment and current market analysis helped participants better understand the operating landscape of green startups, as well as the opportunities and challenges they face.

As part of the program, the presentation by Ms. Nguyen Thi Minh Hue, Project Manager at KLINOVA and an international reviewer for the UNFCCC, offered practical insights into the topic of “Green Financial Investment.” Through representative case studies such as Seep, LenX Energy, and VOX Cool, her presentation illustrated how businesses can transform green ideas into viable business models while aligning with ESG criteria to attract investment. These examples not only highlighted key factors in building effective fundraising strategies but also reflected real-world challenges in implementing sustainable energy and technology solutions in Vietnam.

The event concluded with an interactive Q&A session, providing startups with the opportunity to engage directly with experts and further clarify issues related to finance, market dynamics, and growth strategies. With its practical approach and clear orientation, the Green Startup Exchange Webinar contributed to strengthening connections within the green startup ecosystem, while opening up new opportunities for Vietnamese enterprises to advance toward sustainable growth.
