Qwen AI Build Day
Qwen AI Build Day
One Day. Three Tracks. Your AI Solution in Front of the People Who Can Actually Fund It.
Why This Moment Matters
Vietnam's AI moment is happening right now. The builders who move fast, build on the right stack, and get connected to enterprise partners early — those are the ones who'll define what AI looks like in this region. Qwen AI Build Day is where that starts.
The Problem No One Talks About
Most AI builders in Vietnam are building in a vacuum. You find a cool use case, spin up a prototype, maybe share it on GitHub — and then what? No enterprise validation. No real-world data. No path from "this works on my laptop" to "this is deployed and solving an actual problem." The ecosystem is growing fast, but the bridge between builders and the enterprises that need their solutions? Still broken.
What Qwen AI Build Day Actually Is
Forget the hackathons where you build something impressive, collect a t-shirt, and never hear from anyone again. Qwen AI Build Day by Alibaba Cloud is built differently. You're solving real enterprise problems with hands-on technical support from Alibaba Cloud. And the best part: this doesn't end when the timer stops. The top 6 teams advance to present on the main stage at Alibaba Cloud SME AI Growth Day Vietnam 2026 the very next day, in front of enterprises who are ready to deploy

🤝 A room that can move things forward. Enterprise partners, ecosystem leaders, and judges who have the authority — and the intent — to take conversations beyond the event.
🎤 A stage, not just a trophy. Top 3 teams present at Alibaba Cloud SME AI Growth Day Vietnam 2026 the very next day, in front of a broader audience of enterprises and partners.
Who This Is For (and Who It's Not)
✅ You belong in this room if you are:
An AI developer or software engineer ready to build — not just talk about building
An early-stage AI startup founder looking for enterprise partners and real deployment opportunities
A technical builder who wants hands-on experience with Qwen and Alibaba Cloud in a high-stakes environment
Someone who wants their work seen by the people with actual authority to act on it
❌ You'll want to skip this if:
You're not planning to actively participate and build on the day
You're looking for a purely social event
You're not comfortable with a competitive, fast-paced build environment
Students are welcome — but seats are limited and priority goes to builders with something to ship.
Backed By
This event is backed by two organisations that are serious about Vietnam's AI ecosystem — not just showing up for the logo.
Alibaba Cloud brings the technical firepower: Qwen expertise, cloud infrastructure, and a global network of enterprise deployments across Southeast Asia. GenAI Fund brings the builder network: a community of founders, engineers, and enterprise partners who are actively building — and funding — the next generation of AI solutions in the region.
Speakers, technical mentors, and judges will be announced shortly — drawn from Alibaba Cloud's technical leadership and enterprise partners across Mobility, Healthcare, and Robotics.
🚀 Secure Your Spot
The builders who show up on 21 April won't just walk away with experience on one of the world's most capable AI platforms. They'll walk away with enterprise connections, ecosystem relationships, and for the top 3 — a main stage at Alibaba Cloud SME AI Growth Day Vietnam 2026 the very next day.
This is free to attend. Seats are not unlimited.
