Global digital asset platform MEXC is ramping up initiatives to inspire and equip Vietnam's young tech talent for the fast-evolving Web3 era.

Operating in more than 170 countries, MEXC has backed technology competitions, career workshops, and blockchain community initiatives to encourage innovation among Vietnamese youth. The company aims to link the global Web3 ecosystem with local tech communities, offering hands-on experiences and interactive education in emerging technologies.

Furthermore, through numerous professional exchanges, collaborative initiatives, and open industry dialogues, MEXC has showcased its commitment to fostering a sustainable tech ecosystem in Vietnam.

At GM Vietnam 2025, one of Asia's largest blockchain and digital asset events, MEXC joined as a Diamond Sponsor, delivering a dynamic and engaging technology-community-creativity experience. The MEXC zone featured interactive sports areas like mini golf, an immersive AR and Web3 space with AR challenges and treasure hunts, and a community entertainment area including a photo booth.

Each activity was designed to encourage interaction, tech discovery, and community engagement – drawing thousands of participants throughout the event. The uniquely designed and creatively conceptualised MEXC booth was widely recognised by media outlets, industry experts, and attendees as one of the standout highlights of the event.

On the opening day, MEXC representatives were interviewed live by Vietnam Television (VTV), where they shared insights on MEXC’s vision to foster strategic partnerships and strengthen ties with the Web3 community in Vietnam. Beyond the main event, MEXC also organised two side events aimed at deepening engagement among developers, startups, and influential figures in the blockchain space.

Senior MEXC leaders also took part in key segments of the event, including a keynote speech by Nguyen Thai Phuong Trang (Dada), country business director of MEXC Vietnam, and a panel moderated by Tran So Ky (Yuky), the company's COO.

During the panel discussion, Dada reaffirmed MEXC’s commitment to nurturing Vietnam’s tech ecosystem, especially by empowering young builders-from university students to innovative startups.

MEXC’s long-term vision in Vietnam is clearly reflected through its localised operations, educational programmes, workshops, hackathons, and its global MEXC Foundation initiative with a total budget of $30 million. This initiative supports blockchain education, career mentorship, project funding, and meaningful connections between students, developers, and industry stakeholders.

“With its vibrant, dynamic, and innovative tech community, Vietnam is poised to become Asia’s next Web3 hub,” Dada emphasised, expressing MEXC’s confidence in the country’s blockchain innovation and development potential.

She added, “Vietnam holds tremendous potential to develop a robust tech ecosystem, thanks to its young, tech-savvy population and strong innovative mindset. In fact, Vietnam ranks among the top 10 countries globally in terms of digital asset adoption. With upcoming regulations on digital assets, investors will soon gain access to a new and official investment avenue. Digital asset exchanges, once fully legalised, are expected to become one of the most appealing investment platforms for young people.”

MEXC is more than just a sponsor – it is a true companion to Vietnamese youth on their journey to connect, explore, and contribute to the nation’s thriving innovation and technology landscape.
