James Tan, a representative of Quest Ventures, considered Da Nang one of the localities with good performance in connecting and helping startups raise capital, citing many big enterprises’ presence at DAVAS 2024 and readiness to buy services and products of startups.
He expressed his hope that the city will continue to successfully attract many large firms to the local startup and innovation network.
Da Nang is home to many universities and institutions specialised in training and seeking research and innovation talents, which is also a considerable resource for it to develop startups and innovation, according to Tan.
Activities at DAVAS 2024 include raising capital for startup projects and companies, connecting investors and startups, holding three investment forums on startup and innovation, signing a cooperation deal between the municipal Department of Science and Technology and KILSA Global, and launching an innovation cooperation space of Quest Ventures in Da Nang.
