Vietnam E-Commerce Association (VECOM) in collaboration with Vietnam NPAP and other relevant counterparts organized the 2023 Digital Business Contest (DBC). The contest invited students to submit their business ideas on various topics, including “Green digital business, fast plastic waste reduction” in Pillar 4. A total of 84 eligible teams from 39 universities throughout the country are participating in the contest and will formulate their business ideas on addressing plastic pollution. In October, these applicants will receive an online coaching session and a consultation workshop, followed by a series of direct mentoring sessions through a Unitour, visiting 15 universities together with members of the Judging Panel. The panel, including the Viet Nam NPAP Secretariat Manager and eight other specialists in digital marketing, commerce, logistics, and especially plastic waste and circular economy, will review all proposals and select the best solutions of youth teams for plastic waste reduction.
