Earth Venture Studio was recently honored to host the Gathering Dinner - Founder Batch 1.5, which included 11 teams not only in Vietnam but from many countries around the world, and partners. The event provides an opportunity for 11 outstanding teams that advanced through the first round of Founder Batch 1.5 to present their potential ideas.
This event included a high-level overview of Earth Venture Studio's Founder Batch 1.5 Program by General Partner Tien Nguyen, Linh Nguyen. We believe that the Q&A session with all teams helped founders and innovators better understand the studio program and the goals of this batch in preparation for the next round. At the same time, this is an opportunity for founders, and innovators to meet and share their startup experiences and ideas for starting a business that creates an impact on climate change.
