The tech giant on Monday announced expanded collaborations with the Vietnam National Innovation Center (NIC), the Startup and Innovation Hub of Ho Chi Minh City (SIHUB), Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG), and Indonesia’s Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Komdigi).

The initiative “Google for Startups Accelerator: Southeast Asia” is a new cross-border initiative that helps startups develop and commercialize proprietary agentic AI products. By offering integrated engineering and go-to-market (GTM) partnerships with Google Cloud, it creates a pathway for AI startups in Southeast Asia to scale internationally.

Over the past four years, Google for Startups programs have helped more than 500 Vietnamese startups to achieve commercial scale. The continued collaborations with NIC and SIHUB will connect even more Vietnamese startups with the industry’s only fully-integrated AI stack, best-in-class engineering advisory, and global tech hubs. An inaugural cohort of 25 startups will start a three-month program in August.
