Team Reactor was thrilled to run Fulbright University Vietnam’s pioneer Reactor EntreCamp this year on the Fulbright campus in Ho Chi Minh. 

The 2.5-day Entrepreneurship bootcamp was co-organised with Fulbright’s Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (CEI), and developed through a partnership between CEI, Reactor School and Lawrence S. Ting High School (LSTS).

64 students from 9 different high schools and universities were exposed to core entrepreneurship concepts, and tasked to develop solutions that tackled at least 1 of UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In addition to classroom learning, students ventured out to the local community to test their business ideas with end-users.

“I want to study more about how to build a start-up and how to be successful in business jobs. At first, when I was in grade 8, I had a business project where I sold masks, face masks, and it did not really work. So I’m finding the way, such as what’s the problem with my old business. And when I come to the camp, I just want to discover more about the business world,” shared Dang Lam Phuong Mai, an 11th grader from LSTS.
