​The AI Stack That's Winning in China Is Coming to Vietnam. Come See It Live.

​Vietnam's AI builders are moving fast. But most are still building on the same Western tools everyone else is using — with the same limitations, the same costs, and the same ceiling.

​Qwen just changed the equation. And on 22 April, you'll see exactly what that means for your stack, your product, and your market.

​💢 The Problem Nobody's Talking About

​Here's the uncomfortable truth about building AI products in Southeast Asia right now:

​Most teams are racing to ship — but they're doing it with tools that were built for someone else's market, priced for someone else's budget, and optimised for someone else's language.

​You're patching together APIs, paying USD pricing on MYR/VND revenue, and hoping your English-first model handles Vietnamese well enough. Meanwhile, the teams in China already solved these problems — with open-source models that are faster, cheaper, and built with multilingual performance baked in from day one.

​The gap isn't talent. It's access.

​🎯 What This Event Is

​That's exactly why we're bringing Qwen AI Growth Day to Ho Chi Minh City.

​This isn't a vendor roadshow. It's a full-day showcase of what happens when Vietnamese builders get their hands on one of the world's top-ranked open-source AI models — and actually ship with it.

​On 22 April, you'll be in the room where:

​🔧 Alibaba Cloud and Qwen engineers share what's actually working in production (not the polished deck version)

​🏆 Vietnam's top AI builder teams demo real solutions they built across Mobility, Healthcare, and Robotics — live, on stage, in front of enterprises and partners

​🤝 Enterprise decision-makers and government stakeholders discuss what AI adoption actually looks like on the ground in Vietnam

​🚀 The Vietnam AI Ambassador Program launches — a first-of-its-kind initiative to build a sustainable, homegrown AI builder community

​One afternoon. Real demos. Real conversations. Real access.

​✅ What You'll Walk Away With

​🔓 Unfiltered technical access — Hear directly from Qwen and Alibaba Cloud engineers on capabilities, architecture, and how to actually deploy at scale. No sales pitch. No fluff.

​📐 A live blueprint for AI in production — Watch 6 finalist teams from Vietnam demo AI solutions built on Qwen across Mobility, Healthcare, and Robotics. See what worked, what broke, and how they shipped anyway.

​💬 Direct conversations with enterprises — This isn't a "slide deck and goodbye" event. The format is designed for builders and enterprise teams to actually talk, explore PoCs, and identify real collaboration opportunities.

​🌱 Early access to Vietnam's AI builder network — Be in the room when the Vietnam AI Ambassador Program officially launches. Get connected to the community before it scales.

​🌏 A front-row seat to a regional shift — China's AI ecosystem didn't build Qwen for the West. Southeast Asia is the next frontier. Being here on 22 April puts you ahead of that curve.

​🙋 Who This Is For

​This event is for you if:

​👨‍💻 You're a developer or technical founder who wants hands-on exposure to Qwen and is tired of hitting the ceiling on Western AI tools

​🏢 You're a startup or SME exploring how to build AI into your product without burning your runway on expensive APIs

​📊 You're an enterprise team or decision-maker who needs to understand what AI adoption actually looks like in Vietnam — and wants to meet the builders who are already doing it

​🔗 You're an ecosystem player — investor, accelerator, or partner — who wants to be plugged into Vietnam's emerging AI builder community before it goes mainstream

​This event is NOT for you if:

​❌ You're looking for a passive conference experience — sit, listen, collect a tote bag, leave

​❌ You want theoretical AI discussions with no real-world grounding

​❌ You're not serious about building, adopting, or enabling AI in Vietnam or Southeast Asia

​🎤 Who's In the Room

​🤖 Qwen & Alibaba Cloud Engineers — The people who actually built and deployed the technology. Not regional sales. Not a pre-recorded video. The engineers, live, answering real questions.

​🛠️ Vietnam's Top AI Builder Teams — 6 finalist teams selected from the Qwen AI Build Day on 21 April. These aren't concept pitches — they're working solutions, built in under a week, demoed live.

​🏛️ Enterprise Decision-Makers — Senior leaders from industries actively exploring AI deployment in Vietnam. Here to evaluate, engage, and potentially partner.

​🇻🇳 Government Representative — A senior stakeholder from Vietnam's innovation and technology sector, here to speak to the national AI agenda and what it means for builders and enterprises on the ground.
