Docosan is the first Vietnam-based company to be selected, marking a major milestone for Vietnam\u2019s startup scene. In Vietnam and other emerging markets, navigating healthcare can be difficult and opaque.

We look forward to their contribution to the World Economic Forum in its commitment to improving the state of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re honored to be selected as a pioneer by the World Economic Forum,\u201d said Docosan\u2019s founder and CEO Beth Ann Lopez. \u201cIt\u2019s an affirmation that our technology helps improve the lives of so many people, from a busy mom in need of COVID testing and treatment for her kids delivered to her doorstep, to a young woman receiving stigma-free mental health help online for the first time. We\u2019re especially proud to represent the first Vietnam-based company to be selected by WEF for this honor.
