At the press conference to launch the program Technology Startup - Creating a new reality, Journalist Ta Bich Loan, Head of Entertainment Program Production Department of Vietnam Television (VTV3) said that Technology Startup is a completely "Make in Vietnam" program format, providing a fresh, easy-to-understand look at the ideas of applications, about application programmers, and about how to create and operate a technology project.

I think that the more difficult things are, the more we are motivated to pursue and want to conquer. When we achieve the reward, it will create more excitement and meaning for startups in the Technology Startup program. There are many ideas that have been and are being gradually realized in life by young people. To do that is not easy, but young people are always confident with enthusiasm. Therefore, I believe that when the program supports them, those young people will have more opportunities to develop. This is also a great opportunity for Vietnam to create new values for the country.", Journalist Ta Bich Loan said.

Expressing his views on technology startups, Mr. Dao Xuan Hoang - Early Start advisor said that with the current startup reality, it is very difficult to not incorporate technology. Even when opening a restaurant, we have to use technology to post the menu, update prices and manage revenue and expenditure. Even in the agricultural sector, farmers have known how to apply technology to better cultivate and care for crops.

Participating in Tech Startup, mobile application founders bring many creative and unique products such as The Gioi Tho - providing skilled workers to repair all damages in the family or construction; Manmo - exploiting the segment of motels and guesthouses for guests who need to stay at good and flexible prices; iMotor - making technical information about motorbikes and cars transparent so that car owners can proactively take care of and repair their beloved vehicles without worrying about being cheated; Telepro - providing civilized and effective phone sales solutions for businesses, while creating jobs for many people, especially pregnant women, students, and priority groups such as the disabled...; Vihago - helping passengers conveniently book and catch a car along the way in a convenient and economical way; Triptour – an e-commerce platform that meets all travel needs of tourists, especially applying virtual reality technology for customers to refer to the most realistic services before making a choice…

Talking to reporters of the Business Forum newspaper, Mr. Nguyen Chi Thanh, CEO of the startup project VN Guide, shared that digital transformation currently plays a very important role in most fields, including the transfer of data to smart devices. Stemming from his passion for the tourism industry, Mr. Thanh also realized the weaknesses in finding information of domestic and international tourists when visiting tourist destinations. Therefore, VN Guide aims to digitize information and data on a large scale as an electronic handbook to help people have a better experience when visiting and traveling.

Like other young startups, Mr. Thanh also added about the difficulties that startups face, which is that businesses must utilize all possible human resources for content creation and platform creation, especially applying new technology is not easy, especially technologies that are not yet available in Vietnam, must update and learn from foreign experts, and at the same time update information so that the data source reaching users is an authentic data source, ensuring information security.

Technology startups are the bridge that brings useful applications on smartphones closer to users, and are also the place to sow dreams, ideas and inspiration for both teams and television audiences.

With the mission of "Encouraging Vietnamese aspirations", the Entertainment Program Production Board - VTV3, Vietnam Television brings technology start-up groups to approach users, consultants, establish relationships with media, press, artists and a large television audience to create a platform for ideas to solve problems and change lives with mobile application technology.
