The Techstars Startup Weekend Da Nang 2017 will take place at 31 Tran Phu from 29 September to 1 October.  This is the third time that the competition has been held in Da Nang, but the seventh time in Viet Nam.

The event is jointly organised by the Da Nang Innovation Hub (DINHUB) under the direct management of the municipal Union of the Science and Technology Associations, the Flying Fish Investment Company, and the Global Shapers Community Danang Hub.

This competition is open to all start-up lovers who are living either in Viet Nam or abroad.  In just 54 hours, participants will be required to work in teams, and they will be also asked to together discuss and develop their own business plans with the help of start-up mentors.  The most outstanding teams will advance to the final round.  The finalists will be given a chance to talk with angel investors who will help them develop good ideas.

In the end, prize-winning teams will have the opportunity to attend training courses at DINHUB and the Da Nang Entrepreneurship Support Company.
