Participants will present their business models and discuss measures to increase revenue after analysing the strengths and weaknesses in their ideas.
Businesswomen need support in the form of knowledge and policies from the State to aid their start-up activities, Minh said.
Sean Griffin, co-founder of WECREATE centres worldwide, presented a discourse on startup thinking at the event, which underlined the importance of effort, determination and experience sharing in the startup process.
