What is the New Vietnam?
Vietnam is in the middle of one of the most remarkable transformations in modern history. In a single generation, the country has moved from isolation to integration, from scarcity to ambition, from tradition to experimentation.
ViCo Summit 2026 asks a deliberately open question: what is the New Vietnam? We use it as a conversation starter, surfacing diverse perspectives on how working culture is shifting, how enterprise is evolving, how identity and creativity are being redefined, and where sustainability fits into all of it.
The Summit is ViCo's annual flagship: built around genuine connection and meaningful conversation rather than the standard conference format.
The Summit brings together a multi-disciplinary audience of around 60–70 people:
A curated set of organizations will have showcase tables during the event, giving you direct access to projects, ventures, and initiatives working on Vietnam's future. Contact us to host a table with your (sustainable/social) products.
Three hours of structured conversation and ideas, followed by two hours of food, music, and networking. We use participatory formats over panels, designed to keep people moving and talking.
