Meet The Host: Wendy Nguyen, MBA
Stage presence, venture insight, and cross-border storytelling for the main stage.
Vietnam Tech Summit 2026 will welcome Wendy Nguyen, MBA back to the main stage as MC Host, continuing a role that has made her one of the most recognizable voices of the summit experience.
Across Vietnam Tech Summit programs, Nguyen has guided major moments with a style shaped by live television, business storytelling, and a close understanding of the Vietnamese professional community. From keynote sessions and founder conversations to startup showcases, mentor gatherings, and community programs, she has helped keep the summit moving with warmth, precision, and confidence.
Her role this year comes as the summit returns to Silicon Valley with the theme Build Your Edge in the AI Era. The 2026 program will bring together professionals, founders, investors, recruiters, mentors, students, and community leaders for two days focused on artificial intelligence, career access, startup visibility, and Vietnamese tech leadership.
Nguyen built the foundation of her stage presence in media. Before her work in venture, investor relations, and marketing, she served as a national television host and news anchor in Vietnam. That background gives her a rare command of the room. She knows how to frame a conversation, listen in real time, and make complex topics feel clear to a live audience.
Today, Nguyen works at the intersection of investor relations, marketing, public relations, and U.S. and Asia business connection through her roles with VABA Venture Capital and California Waste Solutions. Her work brings together founders, investors, family offices, business leaders, and community partners around trust, narrative, and opportunity.
“The best stage moments happen when a founder feels safe enough to be clear. My job is to create that space.”
For attendees, her presence creates continuity. Vietnam Tech Summit has grown from an emerging community gathering into one of the most visible Vietnamese technology events in the United States. As the audience has expanded, Nguyen has remained a steady presence, helping connect speakers and attendees while giving the program a clear rhythm from one moment to the next.
At Vietnam Tech Summit 2026, Nguyen will help guide a program spanning main-stage conversations, recruiting access, speed mentoring, company visits, Vietnam AI Stars, curated networking, and community events. The summit will take place August 7 and 8 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View. As the summit enters its 2026 edition, she returns not only to host the stage, but to help carry the voice of a community looking toward its next chapter in technology.
