According to the judges, this year the competition was held after the two old provinces of Dong Nai and Binh Phuoc were merged into the new Dong Nai province, so the projects were more diverse. Among them, many projects developed according to the green economic model, economic development based on local advantages and applications to improve efficiency in production and business. Some projects were creative in nature, with the potential to call for investment capital to develop the model.

The ranking results of the Dong Nai 2025 Innovation and Startup Competition will be announced and awards will be presented in a series of events of the Dong Nai Province Science, Technology, Innovation and Digital Transformation Festival 2025 taking place from October 8 to 10, 2025.
