A 2-day intensive workshop helping Vietnamese youth take local products global. Backed by U.S. Department of State.
Go-US Entrepreneur Bootcamp is a 2-day intensive workshop funded by the YSEALI Reciprocal Exchange Program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State.
We're bringing an American entrepreneur to Vietnam to share real insights about entering the US market — consumer behaviors, go-to-market strategies, and what it actually takes to succeed.
Understand consumer behaviors, regional differences, and entry strategies
Social media (TikTok, Instagram, UGC), LinkedIn personal branding, partnerships, community building, building in public, sales process & traditional channels
Present your US market strategy and get feedback from experts
Meet founders who've done it, plus like-minded young entrepreneurs
