IPITEx 2020 was held within the framework of the Thailand Inventors’ Day under the sponsorship of the Thai Government. This year’s event drew over 1,500 inventions from various countries across the world.
The Vietnamese students joining the event come from secondary and high schools. They were selected by the Research Institute of Creative Education (RICE) and divided into five teams.
Reportedly, the Vietnamese teams clinched five gold medals, three special prizes from the Indonesian Innovation and Invention Promotion Association (INNOPA), and two special prizes from Singapore. These have been the best results by Vietnamese students since they started taking part in the event.
