Progress

  • Completed the draft “Carbon Market Manual for SMEs in Vietnam” with a team of 12 experts
  • Conducted external expert consultations to ensure quality and validity
  • Piloting a knowledge platform to host the book, applying AI for content extraction and designing a friendly user interface for SMEs with VinUniversity Library

Highlights

With clever use of technology, you can have a big impact and scalable potential with a small investment. This knowledge management can be scaled up and provide support to many SMEs across Vietnam. We are also getting into the sector early and learning before lots of other organisations come in.
