A new prize just dropped for the top two finalists of the Echelon Vietnam 2016 TOP100 Search!

We’re kickstarting our TOP100 Search in Ho Chi Minh city this November – and the prizes couldn’t get any better.

The Skolkovo team will be awarding the top two startup finalists with tickets to Startup Village 2017 in Moscow, Russia. This will entitle you to a free booth over the two-day conference, showcasing your startup projects to an estimated 12,000 participants, startups and investors from over 40 countries. Startups will also be granted the opportunity to participate in the pitch competition – a culmination of the Russian Startup Tour that sees top innovators receive funding and the chance to become Skolkovo residents

Best of all? Full travel expenses will be covered.

In its fifth year running, Startup Village has already become a key fixture on the European startup calendar, matching investors with innovators in an open-air festival of entrepreneurship.

The conference incorporates lively debates, interactive startup exhibitions, and the startup pitch sessions.

Vietnam’s TOP100 Judges’ Choice Award winner will also walk away with the Microsoft BizSpark prize.
