Help build
Sponsoring the AIoT Next-Gen Bootcamp directly supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By equipping students with future-ready technical skills, this program empowers youth, closes the digital divide, and builds high-impact local workforce talent.
Why we run this bootcamp?
A quick look at what the program actually does, before you decide how to support it.
Bridge the skill gap: today there is a wide gap between classroom theory and how technology is actually used in industry.
Solve the talent shortage and reduce reliance on other countries: Lao PDR still lacks specialized AIoT engineers, so most projects import experts and technology from abroad, and the money leaves the economy.
Upgrade industry and attract investment (FDI): applying AIoT in 4 strategic sectors (energy, logistics, processing and industrial agriculture) lowers production costs, modernizes factories and attracts foreign investment.
Build a local innovation ecosystem: connect universities, industry and startups by sending students into factories to study real problems, then build a proof-of-concept that solves them.

Ways to support us
Sponsorship isn't one-size-fits-all. Here's how companies typically get involved, based on what they have to offer.
Cash sponsorship
Funds tuition, hardware kits, and lab operations directly.
Hardware & in-kind
Dev boards, sensors, cloud credits, or lab equipment — anything students build on directly. Your product ends up in real hands, in a real project.
Mentorship & talent
Send engineers to review projects, run a workshop, or sit on the demo day panel. No budget required — just time from people who know the field.
Media & venue partner
Host demo day, help us reach more students, or produce content about the cohort. A good fit if visibility matters more to you than hands-on involvement.
