  About the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation

  The CEI is Fulbright’s very first university center, established in summer 2019 to empower future entrepreneurs and innovators to go after Vietnam and the region’s greatest challenges and opportunities. The CEI’s mandate is to work with future entrepreneurs and innovators broadly, including but not limited to Fulbright’s full-time student body. Link to the CEI’s website.

  As the youngest unit of Fulbright, the CEI is still very much a startup within a startup university, and there is near unlimited potential for growth and impact. Since its inception in 2019, the CEI has made rapid progress in cultivating entrepreneurial talent, both in terms of Fulbright students and the broader youth population in Vietnam. The CEI has, in the past year, organized:

  • An entrepreneurial work-study program called the Venture Fellows Program, where we selected, trained, placed, and supported undergraduate students to intern at Vietnam’s leading startup and technology companies
  • An entrepreneurship bootcamp with Reactor School, a leading entrepreneurship education organization out of Singapore
  • A two-day nationwide hackathon with AngelHack, Amazon Web Services, IBM, and VietnamPost
  • Seminars on venture capital investing with Hustle Fund, a global venture capital firm
  • A corporate training workshop pilot program in collaboration with a University of Michigan Ross School of Business marketing professor, John Branch
  • Numerous panels and workshops on entrepreneurship and venture capital by startup founders and venture capitalists in the region

  The CEI has also engaged over 50 companies, investors, and educators in Vietnam and across the region to bring expertise to our students and community.

  In the upcoming year, the CEI is seeking to accelerate its growth further. Priorities are likely to include, but are not limited to, the following initiatives:

  • Expanding the Venture Fellows Program to include new geographies and/or new focus tracks
  • Establishing an international-standard professional education program for Vietnam and Southeast Asia’s rising leaders, with a focus on entrepreneurship, technology and innovation
  • Establishing a formal undergraduate curriculum offering for Fulbright students
  • Conducting intensive immersion experiences such as entrepreneurship bootcamps and hackathons
  • Organizing a region-wide conference for rising Southeast Asian leaders on the future of education

  In time, as Fulbright matures as an institution, we envision the CEI to incubate and accelerate startups and innovative projects – especially those that tackle Vietnam’s most important challenges.

  The Team

  The CEI is led by Spencer Ton. As the CEI’s Director, Spencer leverages his 12 years of experience building and scaling startup initiatives to establish and lead the CEI’s student programs, develop executive education, foster partnerships with the private sector and other institutions, as well as design alternative revenue generation activities.
