Demo Day – Vietnam Hub
Ho Chi Minh City
Driving circular economy solutions as part of climate change adaptation

Emerging innovators, IPPIN alumni, government and industry experts gathering in Ho Chi Minh city in 2022.
As the country moves towards a ban on single-use plastic bags and products by 2031, there is much work to be done.
Find out what role rice straw has in revolutionising plastic packaging or how 3D printed recycled thermoplastics have the potential to disrupt manufacturing technologies.
Learn more about these innovations and others while gaining invaluable government and industry insights into plastic waste trends, challenges and solutions.
This event is held in collaboration with the Vietnam Hub’s partner’s:
- The Australian Government
