On Thursday, the Da Nang College of Information Technology and the US's Lotus Fund, which is an impact investing fund focused on Southeast Asia, officially opened the Start-up Business Incubators and Innovation CIT – Lotus Hub.  It is the first of its kind in the central region and highlands.

The CIT – Lotus Hub is developed on the basis of ‘Incubation of Start-up and Innovation Ideas in Information Technology – PISI-CIT 2015’ which was successfully organised by the college and other domestic and foreign partners.  The aim is to help pupils, university students, and young people across the region to develop their creativity in technology, as well as to introduce their innovative ideas to leading investors in Viet Nam and other Southeast Asian countries.

To mark the occasion, the Lotus Fund selected 5 out of 15 projects from the PISI-CIT 2015 to receive financial aid for their implementation.
