On January 23, 2026, KisStartup officially announced the KisStartup Incubation Program 2026—built on a distinctive incubation model where technology and cultural heritage converge at their most critical point: the market.
In 2026, KisStartup is not merely seeking promising ideas. We partner with teams that are prepared to translate intrinsic value into viable business models—models capable of generating revenue, delivering measurable social impact, and sustaining long-term growth.
Techbloom – Leap to Market
Technology Startup Incubation: From Product to Market
Techbloom is an incubation and investment program designed for technology startups that already possess a solid product foundation (MVP or prototype) and are ready to transition into real-world markets.
The program focuses on:
- Rigorous market validation in real operating conditions
- Refinement of business models and go-to-market strategies
- Strategic connections with customers, partners, and investors
- Strengthening operational readiness and fundraising capabilities
Techbloom is tailored for both domestic and international technology startups seeking to scale in Vietnam and the broader region—particularly within market environments that demand speed, pragmatism, and strong execution discipline.

H2M – Heritage to Market
Incubation Grounded in Culture and Heritage
H2M is an incubation program for startups that leverage cultural and local heritage assets, integrating modern business thinking and technology to develop sustainable, community-responsible business models.
H2M focuses on:
- Transforming cultural values into market-ready products and services
- Designing ethical business models that ensure fairness for heritage-owning communities
- Developing creative, cultural, and sustainable tourism initiatives
- Expanding social impact in parallel with economic performance
H2M is designed for projects that believe preservation and commercialization are not opposing forces, but can reinforce one another when approached with care, responsibility, and sound design.

Both tracks feature:
- Rolling admissions and continuous project intake
- Hands-on training, coaching, and execution-focused mentorship
- Direct access to startup ecosystems, strategic partners, and investors
- A clearly defined pathway from idea or product → market → investment
- Embedded human resources to accelerate validation and market deployment
