The motivation behind:
“We chose the business challenge instead of a charity, as we believe that as a Business Association we can make a more sustainable impact by encouraging and mentoring business. Because successful new companies are creating ever-increasing jobs, income, initiative and purpose in the long term. It suits our predominantly SME membership well, and perfectly combines German business values with Vietnamese entrepreneurship spirit.”
GBA board member Ms. Havana Tong, CEO and Co-Founder of the German Dental Clinic and Holger Benthien, founding member of the GBA reached out to the GBA members to build up a committee, now consisting of 14 engaged GBA members and is supported by the DAAD and the Vietnamese-German University (VGU).
