In a global context, Ho Chi Minh City's promotion of building inter-regional innovation networks with neighboring localities is not just an administrative cooperation move, but a strategic structural shift for the growth of Vietnamese startups.

Instead of continuing to concentrate resources within urban space, the city chooses a new approach: connecting the unique capabilities of each region to create mutually reinforcing value. When these pieces are connected in a unified innovation network, the development space for startups is expanded.


This strategy also reflects a shift in Ho Chi Minh City's thinking on developing its startup ecosystem:
The city aims to upgrade the quality of startup growth.
Connecting with leading businesses in industrialized regions helps startups shorten the gap from idea to commercialization.
It reduces infrastructure pressure and costs, while neighboring provinces can leverage new knowledge, technology, and business models.

This is not just a support policy, but an invitation for startups to enter a larger playing field, where value is measured by their ability to create real impact on the economy. Those who leverage this network early and understand their role in the interconnected ecosystem will have a long-term advantage in the growth race.
