HANOI: A first-of-its-kind accelerator programme for energy efficiency has been kicked off in Vietnam.
The programme, which is part of the Accelerating Innovative Start-ups for Energy Efficiency (AIS4EE) project, is funded by the European Union (EU) within the framework of the EU-Vietnam Sustainable Energy Transition Programme, hosted by the Industry and Trade Ministry.
Under the AIS4EE project, the programme is organised by Touchstone Partners, an early-stage venture capital firm in Vietnam.
Dedicated to fostering innovation in energy efficiency, the programme focuses on attracting investments in cutting-edge solutions for energy efficiency in the industry, transportation and green building sectors.
Applications for the programme are now open. Selected teams will undergo a nine-week training programme led by experienced experts and be mentored in the start-up ecosystem and energy-efficiency space. — Viet Nam News/ANN
