AI and Robotics: A New Playing Ground for Young Vietnamese Talent

As part of the VietAI Summit 2019, Dr. Thuc Vu gave a presentation discussing the goals and success of Kambria’s recent hackathon series, the Vietnam AI Grand challenge. Over 400 developers competed in the Grand Challenge, which launched the campaign of AI learning and development in Vietnam.

VietAI Summit Featured on Vietnamese Television

The topics and speakers featured in our recent VietAI Summit garnered a great deal of interest from television station VTV in Vietnam. Check out the two separate news segments in Vietnamese with English subtitles.

Vietnam currently has more than 30 startups working on artificial intelligence with Viettel, FPT, and Vingroup invested in research and application. However, data accessibility is still a big problem for developers. What is the solution?

Artificial intelligence is gaining popularity in Vietnam. In fact, the past year has witnessed not only the development of artificial intelligence among a group of startup businesses but also among large and leading Vietnamese enterprises, which are now showing interest in making more investments in AI research and applications.

This large group of businesses is expected to play an important role because it possesses abundant data resources for the AI community to exploit, and is the output for products using AI technology. Learn more about the future of AI in Vietnam by watching this report.

Kambria is the first blockchain project to build an open innovation platform for frontier technology. We are focusing first on the AI and Robotics vertical with the backing of our well-established robotics company, OhmniLabs. Through existing partnerships with top universities and large international corporations, as well as access to talented developers, we aim to build an ecosystem that can bring the next wave of frontier technology to provide value to billions of people around the world.
