MindX is a coding school in Vietnam that aims to build a comprehensive ecosystem for tech talent, covering everything from education to co-working spaces. It has grown to become Southeast Asia’s leading ecosystem for technology education.
Problem
- Talent shortage: There is a significant shortage of computer programming talent, with an estimated 1 million positions unfilled in 2020.
- Outdated education: University & K-12 education in IT are too theoretical and slow to evolve, leaving only less than 30% of the 32k graduates meeting job market demands for fresh graduates.
- Lack of early tech education: Technology is not part of the K-12 curriculum and there is no mainstream provider of technology education for young students.
Solution
- Comprehensive tech education: MindX offers a technology school ecosystem providing coding and other tech-related courses for adult students and K12 as young as 8 years old. Its over 40 centres nationwide also serve as co-working spaces for tech startups during working hours.
- Two main business lines: MindX focuses on coding and tech-related education for K-12 students and professionals through a hybrid online-to-offline delivery format. It also provides co-working spaces.
- Expansion into early education: The company is expanding into the kindergarten segment by providing a STEM-English programme, opening schools in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.
