Growing Da Nang’s AI & startup ecosystem

For city & local government partners · Da Nang, Vietnam

Frontier Club is building an international community of builders in Da Nang: founders who don't just visit, but stay and grow their startups from the city itself. We believe Da Nang has the potential to become Southeast Asia's leading destination for AI founders, and Frontier Club is the on-ramp bringing that talent in.

Sponsorship target

$25,000/ month total

Covers the full program: events, meetups, workshops, and mentoring startup founders.

Frontier Club · Da Nang City, Vietnam

What we run

Events, meetups, workshops & mentoring, multiple times per month

Multiple times a month, we run AI meetups, workshops, and founder mentoring, creating a steady pipeline that attracts international builders to launch startups from Da Nang. Alongside this, our community gatherings help them put down real roots: building relationships, finding co-founders and teammates, and coming to see Da Nang as a place to build a career, not just a stopover.

AI Meetups

Open builder nights

Talks, demos, and hands-on coworking for developers and founders shipping with AI.

Founder Hub

Peer sessions

Smaller circles where founders work through building, marketing, and startup questions together.

Workshops

Hands-on formats

Focused sessions that turn tools and workflows into practice, not slides alone.

Founder mentoring

Ongoing support

Direct mentoring for startup founders on shipping, go-to-market, and connecting to the right people.

Traction on the ground

440+ builders on the Da Nang list

In roughly six weeks: 5 events run and around 100 unique builders checked in. Early proof of momentum and real demand from international founders for a destination like Da Nang.

For the city & local government

Why partner with Frontier Club

Our vision: a thriving startup ecosystem in Da Nang, where a meaningful share of the international founders who come through choose to grow their startups here rather than in Saigon, Hanoi, or Singapore. We're also actively connecting into Vietnam's national startup ecosystem, linking local startups to international investors and vice versa, positioning Da Nang as a bridge between the two.
