Building a strong media for Startup Venture

Khác với công ty đại chúng, thông tin về startup rất mù mờ. Để nhà đầu tư có thể biết – hiểu – tin một startup mới là một câu hỏi lớn. Lúc này truyền thông đóng một vai trò hỗ trợ đắc lực giúp tạo được niềm tin và nền tảng tham khảo cho các bên quan tâm. Tuy nhiên đâu là điểm cân bằng trong truyền thông để thật sự tạo được bệ phóng phù hợp cho startup để tránh khỏi cái bẫy “quá liều”?
Nếu cho rằng giai đoạn truyền thông trong hành trình gọi vốn và đồng hành cùng nhà đầu tư được chia làm 3 phần: Ngay sau khi gọi vốn thành công, xuyên suốt quãng đường đồng hành cùng VC/Nhà đầu tư và chuẩn bị cho thoái vốn (exit). Có gì khác nhau trong cách thức truyền thông ở những giai đoạn trên hay không?
Nếu bạn đang tìm kiếm câu trả lời cho việc làm truyền thông và xây dựng mạng lưới thế nào để chuẩn bị cho việc mở rộng doanh nghiệp, gọi vốn mạo hiểm, hãy tham gia Panel Talk “Building a strong media for Startup Venture” (Truyền thông cho đầu tư mạo hiểm, làm sao cho đúng?) để gặp gỡ nhà khởi nghiệp, nhà đầu tư đã làm điều đó:

Vietnam is now one of the fastest growing countries in Asia. All current investment trends are pointing up as the government continues to make things easier for business and foreign investment. Linked with macro-economic performance and encouraged by supporting policies, the real estate sector is expected to continue to surge and sustain its growth.
Vietnam was also the largest recipient of funding from the Economic Development Cooperation Fund (EDCF) provided by the Export-Import Bank of Korea (Korea Eximbank) over the past five years (2019).
