In-depth, up-front experience of Silicon Valley innovation through SVIC has primed VinTech to hit the ground running with their creation of a leading international tech industry in Vietnam. As Vingroup\u2019s Deputy General Director Nguy?n Vi?t Quang noted at the signing ceremony for VinTech: \u201cThis is our destiny.\u201d One facet of Silicon Valley culture where no extra guidance is needed: ambition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
VinTech came to SVIC looking to understand what makes the Silicon Valley ecosystem thrive. They wanted to understand the cultures and values that have produced so many successful companies, and \u2013 more importantly \u2013 the tools, techniques, methodologies, and people that allow these companies to continue to grow and shape the world economy. VinTech executives learned how to create and foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and employee empowerment even as companies scale. They went back to Vietnam with valuable networking experience and new international colleagues, first-hand impressions of successful company cultures, and a potential partnership in RocketSpace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At RocketSpace, one such international start-up accelerator that provides velocity (\u201cboth speed and direction\u201d) to companies of all shapes and sizes, VinTech learned that a foundation of open collaboration is a fast track to the future. The founder of RocketSpace shared how his company brings entrepreneurs, startups, and corporate professionals together to capitalize on multiple threads of innovation at once. VinTech took away valuable lessons in fostering collaboration within their industry \u2013 and a potential partnership of their own with RocketSpace, with which they secured another meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If innovation in one company is worth the price, innovation across many companies is worth a fortune. VinTech had the opportunity to visit startup accelerators, venture funds, and corporate innovation consultancies committed to bringing the benefits of Silicon Valley worldwide. The executives learned about the latest ideas being used to leverage emerging global networks of multi-industry partnerships. Developing local accelerators and partnering with international companies is an untapped opportunity in Asia and a central part of VinTech\u2019s plans to jumpstart the Vietnamese tech industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later in the program, VinTech heard from the Principal Engineer of Cisco\u2019s Strategic Innovation Group on their digital transformation journey<\/a>. Cisco \u2013 ancient by tech industry standards, founded in 1984 \u2013 has had to pivot from one networking technology to another to stay relevant in a constantly shifting landscape. In the Internet of Everything era, they run Innovation Centers designed to help them stay ahead of the game. The VinTech executives learned about Cisco\u2019s process for generating ideas and asked about the financial, temporal, and labor costs of constant iteration. As the success of Cisco and Silicon Valley implies, the price is worth it. In learning how to anticipate and calculate them, VinTech can now build the cost of innovation directly into their models for a new industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If innovation in one company is worth the price, innovation across many companies is worth a fortune.

Because VinTech plans to help develop 100,000 engineers over the next decade, this part of the program was of particular help. The executives wanted to know what to look for in new hires to maintain a lean company culture, as well as how to differentiate between employee incompetence and mistakes made in the pursuit of progress. Understanding the difference between structural weaknesses and teachable failures is a crucial tenet of the agile philosophy that allows Google to fail fast and follow success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Learning how to start innovating is one thing; learning how to stay <\/i>innovative is quite another. To understand how some of the world\u2019s biggest tech companies continue to transform in the face of corporate inertia, VinTech visited the campuses of giants like Google, Apple, and Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Engineering Director at Google shared one secret to sustaining innovation: empowering employees.

Their goal is to bring the Silicon Valley model back home in the form of VinTech City \u2013 70 hectares of land in Hanoi that the company hopes will become the cradle of technology in Vietnam.
