Ychallenge provides a good opportunity for your thoughts to be heard and for you to grow into a full person through many levels of interaction with peers and with our distinguished judges and partner companies.

The Competition will give you exclusive opportunities to attend our enrichment workshops to sharpen your analytical skills through in-depth discussion with industry experts as well as the management board of the 4 partner companies.

On top of that, through participating in Ychallenge, you can contribute to Vietnam by taking concrete actions towards firms in need while enjoying a fun and memorable experience.

Definitely not! Although our main objective is to engage Vietnamese youths, we also welcome those who are not Vietnamese but hold strong interest in Vietnam’s development. We request that you have at least one team member of Vietnamese descent to avoid any possible communication breakdown with the local partners.

It’s really simple. Via this link, please register as teams of 3 or 4 OR register as individuals and we will help you find your team mates based on your background and preferences. Kindly ensure that your/ your team’s CVs are ready for submission.

We have received enquiries from enthusiastic folks who are so interested that they want to join the organizing team (Yay!). Since the organizing team for this event has been fixed, we would take note of your interest for our line-up events after this Ychallenge (Did we mention that we have a whole host of events in the pipeline waiting for awesome individuals like you to contribute and shine?). If you are interested to know more about us or hope to contribute in any way to our Yplatform, please drop us an email at ychallenge@yplatform.vn

The main language will be English. However, there may be some original reading materials of partner companies written and discussions with the management boards held in Vietnamese. Hence, we request that each team have at least one member of Vietnamese descent to overcome the potential communication difficulties.

Financially, overseas participants will need to prepare for their flight to Singapore, as well as all related costs incurred during their stay in Singapore. Other than that, the organizers do have a dedicated team to guide foreign audience through the entire stay in Singapore. Furthermore, if you don’t mind, we can try to arrange for you to stay with our organizers (we are students) so that you can further save the accommodation cost. Eight finalist teams attending the field trip and the Finale organized in Vietnam in mid December 2011 will receive financial and operational support from Ychallenge (accommodation and transportation provided, air tickets largely subsidized).
