My name is Minh Thu, and I'm I am an Event Manager part of the Community Team from Vietnam. I am currently doing my Master's in Biomedical Sciences at the University of Amsterdam. The main reason I joined ASIF because I want to learn more about startups and venture capital, learn more about the barriers of entry for young founders and entrepreneurs from underrepresented groups, and take part in reducing these barriers. I aspire to help (young) people to take risks, be disruptive for a more inclusive and innovative startup ecosystem but also in other aspects of life, and also to one day start a biotech startup.
