A Triumphant First Season
Conceived and organized for the first time in 2023, RongViet Invest received an overwhelmingly positive response, with 25 universities and colleges across the country taking part. In its inaugural season, the competition attracted over 8,000 students to a series of workshops on personal finance and stock investing, with 1,000 students participating in the competition rounds.

TS. Bui Hong Diep, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Finance and Accounting at Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry, praised the competition’s practicality: “RongViet Invest 2023 offers a meaningful playground for students, encouraging them to equip themselves with comprehensive knowledge about finance and investing, market research, and making independent investment decisions.”
RongViet Invest 2024: Introducing the Team Category, with a Total Prize Pool of Nearly VND 500 Million
The second season of the competition sees a significant change with the introduction of the Team Category alongside the Individual Category. Each team, comprising three students representing their school, will receive initial capital of VND 20 million from Rong Viet to participate in the Real Investment Round. Based on the achieved profit margin, the top six outstanding teams will advance to the final round to present their investment ideas. This provides an opportunity for students to connect, exchange ideas, work collaboratively, and devise effective investment strategies.
In contrast to the Team Category, the Individual Category focuses on providing students with in-depth training and practical experience in navigating market fluctuations and breaking through limitations through distinct investment strategies. Participants in this category will go through two rounds: Investment Knowledge and Real Investment. A key difference is that students will use their own capital (a minimum of VND 2 million and a maximum of VND 20 million) to make real investments and determine their results based on their investment performance.
RongViet Invest 2024 Competition Rounds
Throughout the competition, contestants and teams will receive investment advice from Rong Viet’s experienced team of experts, helping young investors gain confidence as they navigate the RongViet Invest 2024 competition. Additionally, Rong Viet provides a set of four powerful investment support tools to accompany the contestants: eduDragon – a comprehensive stock training system; iDragon – an advanced online stock trading system; smartDragon – an optimized stock investment support platform; and hiDragon – an intelligent investment assistant.
The Quartet of Powerful Investment Support Tools
In addition to the thrilling competition rounds, RongViet Invest also collaborates with universities, colleges, and academies to organize a series of workshops on personal financial management and stock investing for students, covering a diverse range of topics that combine theory and practice. Through these workshops, Rong Viet aims to raise awareness among young people about the role and potential of the stock market and the importance of personal financial management and investing for their lives and future.

Mr. Nguyen Chi Trung, Member of the Board of Directors of Rong Viet, Head of the Competition Steering Committee, shared: “Through this program, Rong Viet encourages students to equip themselves with comprehensive knowledge about finance and investing, to research and grasp market information, and to make independent investment decisions. This will help them develop their confidence and gain experience as they embark on their investment journey and take control of their personal finances in the future.”
“This year, RongViet Invest 2024 introduces improvements in the rules and expands its scale, affirming its position as an attractive, reputable, and high-quality stock investment competition organized by Rong Viet. With a total prize pool of VND 500 million and hundreds of internship opportunities at Rong Viet, one of the leading securities companies in Vietnam’s financial market, RongViet Invest 2024 serves as a launchpad for young people to develop their careers and take control of their finances in the future.”
Currently, Rong Viet is one of the pioneering securities companies in the mission of educating and raising awareness about investing among young people. Recently, the company initiated a series of free financial education workshops for students from grades 1 to 12, titled “Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees.” This activity, which involves both parents and students, has been highly regarded for its practicality and age-appropriate content.
“Through RongViet Invest and other financial education and investment initiatives for the community, Rong Viet aspires to contribute to building a new generation of investors with knowledge, experience, and resilience. By doing so, we hope to foster the healthy and sustainable development of Vietnam’s stock market,” emphasized Mr. Chi Trung.
