"Startup" is currently receiving the attention of students right from the time they were still in university lecture halls. Business ideas stem from passion and ambition, under the guidance of teachers and companionship from friends, gradually "startups" were formed.
Salework - Sales
management tool on e-commerce platforms, the startup idea of student Nguyen Huu
Dung - K61 student from Faculty of Business Administration, VNU University of
Economics and Business also started like that. There were difficulties and
challenges, but in the end, with the enthusiasm and bravery of youth, UEBer has
reaped the first "sweet fruits" in its entrepreneurial journey.
UEB - The first
starting point on the path of entrepreneurship
For many students,
university is not only a place to provide a solid knowledge foundation, a place
to hone skills and improve themselves, but also a place to connect students,
where they can find reliable companions on every journey. So do the
two students (Nguyen Huu Dung and his companion Nguyen Xuan Huy) of UEB.
Sharing the same ideal and passion, along with the guidance and support
from a team of enthusiastic lecturers, the two students are
motivated to take on the entrepreneurial spirit. “In order to achieve today's
results, we - the competition team have received support from the teachers of
VNU - UEB and mentors throughout the process of idea formation and project
development. The Business Challenges competition is a memorable experience, a
leap for Salework to be successful in the future,” Nguyen Huu Dung proudly
shared about UEB - the place where passion is nurtured and raised to maturity.

Economics and Businessoffers a comprehensive development environment for
students. With a tradition of nearly 50 years, in recent years, the University

themselves on every journey in the future.
The university and its staff always
accompany UEBers on every journey

lecturers and academic advisors always follow each student's step, ready to accompany
and support them on the way. The dedication, dynamism and creativity in the
teaching methods of the teachers are the golden keys to open the door to the
potential of developing the quality of international standard training,

Business Challenges -
Momentum towards success
Focusing on building
international seminars and seminars, taking the lead in organizing many
dialogue programs, intellectual playgrounds for students, etc. is what the UEB
has been implementing in recent years. In recent years, in order to create a
real-life experience environment for students. Business Challenges - a
competition for business ideas and solving practical business problems, is an
annual playground to help economic students get closer to the startup
community, develop creative ideas, experience a professional working
environment as well as access to many recruitment opportunities of reputable
enterprises.
Participating in
Business Challenges not only helps students master and expand their
professional knowledge, but also creates momentum for future development.
Overcoming more than
800 contestants from 30 economics universities, Dung and Huy's Salework team
excellently won the top prize at Business Challenges season 5, straight into
the fundraising round of Shark Tank Vietnam and continued to excellently win
the First Prize of the Startup Competition of Vietnam National University,
Hanoi. This is a sales management platform, providing the optimal solution for
business owners, and also the first success on the entrepreneurial path of two
young and enthusiastic UEB students.
After the success at
the contest, the story of "fighting" with the actual market would not
be that favorable. Difficulties and challenges are indispensable ingredients in
the formula for success. “Before coming to the success of Salework, I only knew
about losses, continued to invest without really understanding what profits
were. But from those failures, in my final year of university, I and my colleagues
created Salework - a sales management platform for e-commerce platforms with
tens of thousands of people trusting and paying for it. It has also received awards as well as investment invitations from domestic
programs and investors.”, two members of the Salework competition team shared
about their entrepreneurial journey.

of the intake K61 - School of Business Administration and his companion
excellently won the top prize at the Business Challenges season 5
With my best efforts
in learning, actively learning from the seniors, leading expert advisors in the
profession, flexibly applying book knowledge into practice, after more than 1
year of operation, Salework has received many compliments from experts as well
as positive feedback from users. “Salework is an indispensable platform for
business people on E-commerce platforms. I am using Salework to manage my
shops, I also recommend Salework to students participating in sales training
courses on the e-commerce floor organized by me. With Salework, the management
and operation of its Shops becomes extremely convenient and optimal, Salework
has really brought a revolution for sellers on the platform".
The road to success
will not be lined with roses, nor will it be smooth. On it, there are always
hidden challenges to test the bravery of each person. Going through a challenge
we will be more mature, from there, success will come very close. “Effort to
create diamonds” has always been a guideline to guide the young generation to
embark on the entrepreneurial journey. Despite great challenges, many failures,
but surely you will never lose, because those will be valuable lessons that you
cannot find in book theory. We have youth, enthusiasm, time, with effort we
will succeed in the future. Always believe in yourself, UEBers!”. Dung's
message seems to fuel the fire of passion and enthusiasm for young people who
confidently paint their own "startup".
Wish UEBers success
in their "dream" of starting a business!
