In its fourth season<\/strong>, more than 150 students from 34 teams<\/strong> joined the two-month entrepreneurial program<\/strong>, directly developing ideas, creating products, designing packaging, building brands, planning marketing strategies, and bringing their products to market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The competition once again proves that at Hoa Sen University, students not only learn theory but also apply it in practice, generating tangible value from their education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Nearly 180 million VND<\/strong> in revenue is an impressive figure, but the true value lies in the practical lessons that students have gained. \u201cIn my view, this competition is more than an academic contest; it is the entrepreneurial journey<\/strong> of HSU students while they are still in school,\u201d shared M.A. L\u00ea Ng\u1ecdc \u0110\u1ee9c<\/strong>, Lecturer and Business Management Coordinator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
