ABOUT US
BLOCK71 Vietnam is a strategic collaboration between the
National University of Singapore (NUS) and Becamex IDC, Vietnam’s leading industrial park developer. It
serves as a platform to connect Vietnamese tech startups with global markets and resources, providing
mentorship and support for international growth.
Since its inception in October 2020, BLOCK71 Vietnam has
developed a vibrant startup community and fostered partnerships with key players, including universities,
venture capital funds, and corporates.
The origin of BLOCK71 traces back to Singapore in 2011, where NUS, Singtel Innov8, and the Media Development
Authority repurposed an old industrial building, Blk 71 Ayer Rajah Crescent, into a startup hub. This
transformation helped to accelerate SIngapore's tech ecosystem. Today, BLOCK71 Singapore spans six
buildings and continues to house hundreds of startups, venture capitalists, incubators, and corporate
accelerators.
BLOCK71 continues to expand its efforts, driving new
initiatives and offering support to tech entrepreneurs both locally and internationally.
