In late September, 2025, the Galaxy of Innovation event will take place at the Galaxy Innovation Hub (High-Tech Park, Ho Chi Minh City), themed “Unlocking the Power of AI and Blockchain”. Sovico Group organizes the program in collaboration with Hutech University, the Ho Chi Minh City Computer Association, and the Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (C4IR), among others.

Scheduled for September 25-26, the event expects to attract approximately 1,000 attendees, including 30 esteemed domestic and international speakers, 500 business leaders, 100 Hackathon participants, and over 15 technology partners.

As a key part of the event, Vietnam will recognize the Galaxy Innovation Hub as its first smart building. It will also introduce a new automated retail store model located within the campus. The Galaxy Innovation Hub, spanning over 35,000 m², began construction in February 2020 and officially became operational after nearly three years. HDBank considers it a model for industrial transformation within the Ho Chi Minh City High-Tech Park.

One of the main activities is the HDBank Hackathon.
