The contest is expected to create an impetus to form a creative economy, thus contributing to realising the target to turn Hanoi into an innovation hub in Southeast Asia, and the world's destination of knowledge and creativity.
According to Director of the municipal Department of Culture and Sports Do Dinh Hong, the municipal authorities are actively coordinating with agencies and organizations to organise contests and events towards a network of young designers and valuable products that can contribute to the capital city’s creative industry.
At the contest launching ceremony, a cooperation agreement was signed between the two organisers to enhance connection in the field.
In 2019, Hanoi became an official member of the UNESCO's Creative Cities Network in the field of design. The municipal authorities always create favourable conditions to raise the bar for the design and creativity fields, and promoting community engagement to gradually realise its creative initiatives./.
