15. - The startup innovation ecosystem has been formed and developed, but
the competitiveness is not high. There are no large corporations
participating in supporting and investing;
- Universities still have a significant gap in fostering innovation, resulting
in a limited number of startups originating from academic institutions;
- The technical infrastructure is still incomplete and lacking;
- Human resources to support startup innovation ecosystem is limited, the
Danang startup innovation support center has just been established, so
experience, infrastructure, and human resources are still incompleted;
- Financial resources (both public and private sectors) for startup
innovation ecosystem are still very modest. Insufficient legal corridor;
- Limited experience, knowledge and skills.
