The 1st Vietnam-Kansai Startup Forum was held on November 5th (Friday)
In cooperation with the Vietnam Consulate General in Osaka, JETRO Hanoi Office, and JETRO Osaka Headquarters, we held an event to introduce Vietnamese startups. After receiving an introduction from the JETRO Hanoi office about the current situation of Vietnamese startups and J-Bridge's efforts from the JETRO Osaka headquarters, we pitched five carefully selected Vietnamese startups and one major company. The Japanese presentation developed by AIMESOFT by automatic narration using AI made me feel the near future, and I felt that I was better at Japanese than foreigners who were good at Japanese. I also felt great potential for Phenikaa X, which has developed autonomous driving technology in a short period of time and has advanced to demonstration experiments. Through such efforts, the Kansai Economic Federation ABC Platform will continue to provide opportunities for new business creation between ASEAN and Japanese companies.
