VietnamSourcing2025

A New Starting Point for the Next Phase

Four digital service providers have participated in the Vietnam E-Commerce and Digital Technology Application Forum. This marks their first direct involvement at the heart of the digital transformation wave, where concepts are tested and turned into practical solutions.

The exhibition will open doors for impromptu encounters. A question about optimizing shipping costs might lead to a discussion on logistics in remote areas. A sharing about challenges in digital marketing may inspire a direction rooted in the strength of local culture.
It is moments like these that create the true value of this trip. When hearing how a startup in Ho Chi Minh City expanded its business model, participants began to consider the possibility of scaling their own services. When witnessing a business solution in action, they asked themselves: "Which part could be simplified to suit local services?"
After the trip, the IDAP project will host exchange sessions for participants to share their learnings. Valuable ideas will be developed into concrete plans and become a reference for other units in the community. The ultimate goal is to enhance collective digital transformation capabilities through targeted learning.

A New Chapter in the Digital Transformation Journey – Local Service Providers Moving Towards Connectivity and Breakthroughs

To promote the connectivity of the national digital transformation ecosystem, the IDAP Project is organizing a learning tour at the Vietnam Sourcing Forum 2025 in Ho Chi Minh City from September 4-6, 2025, for prominent digital service providers.

The tour is not only an opportunity to explore new trends in digital transformation but also a chance for service providers to engage directly with experts, learn about smart business models, and establish relationships with potential partners. The forum will offer fresh perspectives on the market, helping participants seize practical opportunities to apply in their digital service development strategies in Lào Cai and Sơn La. This trip also represents a new approach from the IDAP project to enhance the capabilities of ethnic minority women and people with disabilities. Instead of just learning theoretical knowledge, direct exposure to the real-world environment allows learners to observe, learn, and apply digital transformation more easily.

The IDAP project has always been by the side of service providers, supporting them in improving their business models, helping them reach out to and find customers. Over two seasons, we have witnessed their unwavering efforts to improve service quality and business operations. From late-night assignments seeking feedback to continuous innovations to improve processes, these units have truly shown their commitment to learning and change.

The next phase will be a significant turning point, as these units will not only accumulate knowledge but also actively connect and expand their market networks. The goal is to apply the knowledge gained in practice, build long-term relationships, and create a solid foundation for future cooperation opportunities.

The selected units participating in this trip are:

Ms. Dương Hồng Thuỷ – Provider of Nặm Chữ services
Ms. Phạm Thị Kim Anh – Provider of Cultural Heritage Digitalization Consulting services
Ms. Vàng Thị Mơi – Provider of Mơi Design services
Ms. Lương Thị Việt Chinh – Provider of Mây Studio services

We will continue to organize more tours in the future, offering opportunities for other service providers to learn and grow. This is the time for you to actively seek opportunities, enhance your capabilities, and decide on your own digital transformation path.

Always be ready to seize new opportunities, learn from real-world experiences, and strive for success in the future.
