The ‘Go Boundless’ video contest officially began on February 17, 2022. As of March 9, 2022, VinFast and Nas Academy received an astounding 5,139 applications from 156 countries. The US, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, and Nigeria account for approximately 50% of the applicants.
Of the 5,000+ applications, hundreds of videos have already been submitted with unique ideas showcasing an appreciation for the sustainable electric mobility trend that VinFast is accelerating globally. VinFast and Nas Academy are hopeful in the bold inspiration for society’s creativity and progress towards adopting cleaner renewable sources of energy and applying environmentally friendly mobility solutions.
In addition to receiving an all-expense-paid trip to Vietnam to compete for the Grand Prize, the top ten candidates from the first round will also receive a $2,000 cash prize. The final winner of the ‘Go Boundless’ challenge will receive a $30,000 cash Grand Prize.
About the contest, Mr. Nuseir Yassin, CEO and Founder of Nas Academy, shared: “We are extremely excited with the huge interest coming from our young talents. Going boundless together, we, the future content creators, will inspire and make a significant impact on the green revolution.”
Ms. Le Thi Thu Thuy, Vingroup Vice Chairwoman and VinFast Global CEO, stated: “The great resonance coming from across the globe to the contest give VinFast motivation to continue its mission of driving the movement of the global electrified mobility revolution. We are so grateful to welcome thousands of wonderful talents on this journey towards a greener, safer, and more efficient tomorrow for all.”
Creating the video is undoubtedly an exciting challenge as it requires creativity, storytelling, and an understanding of the importance of sustainable mobility. Valid entries must be 1-3 minutes in length and attempt to inspire audiences to switch from gasoline-powered cars to electric vehicles with at least one compelling reason. Entries also must satisfy stringent audio, lighting, and language (English) requirements.
Deeply motivated by this resonance, VinFast and Nas Academy have decided to carry this momentum until March 25, 2022, to welcome more talents to the contest. Candidates can register for the contest and learn more on the website: https://nasacademy.com/vinfast
