Abstract: Abstract The start-up ecosystems have emerged in different countries and areas all over the world since the 2000s, including key facilitators and essential capabilities that gravitate toward growth ventures. These ecosystems focus on particular disciplines, present a variety of features and dynamics, and have their own variety of evolution over time. Since Vietnam has pushed strategies and incentives to take advantage of digital technology in order for the country’s start-up sector and supporting technical adaptation to grow, the high-tech sector has been dominating the start-up ecosystem in Vietnam. This chapter sheds light on the dynamics of the high-tech start-up ecosystem in Vietnam by taking the Quang Trung Software City (QTSC) as a critical case. By adopting a qualitative research inquiry based on interview data collected from managers in QTSC, and start-ups operating and located in QTSC, this chapter highlights several facilitators that QTSC has delivered to digital start-ups. Our chapter contributes to the emerging literature on the development of the high-tech start-up ecosystem and our case ecosystem also contributes highly to improving the maturity of Vietnam tech start-ups.
