HCM CITY (Biz Hub) — Registration is open for a national business start-up contest.

The Start-up Wheel 2015, organised by the HCM City Young Businesspeople Association and the Business Start-up Support Centre, will be a platform for young people to present innovative business start-up ideas and business strategies and mobilise funds for projects.

Contestants will be provided intensive training in how to start a business and a chance to learn from successful entrepreneurs.

Open to everyone under 35 – unlike the first two years when it was open only to young people living or studying in HCM City – registration for the contest will close on May 15.

On offer are attractive prizes and sponsorship from local businesses to convert winning ideas into reality.

It will be organised in five places – HCM City, Ha Noi, Da Nang, Hue, and Can Tho – and hopes to receive around 500 start-up ideas.

More information about the competition is available at www.startupwheel.bssc.vn and www.facebook.com/startupwheel. — VNS
