How did Da Nang grow into an active hub connecting digital nomads, expats, local professionals, and Vietnamese communities? Two of its community builders share the systems, partnerships, and participation that made it work.

Da Nang has become one of Southeast Asia’s most active destinations for globally mobile professionals. In this session, Markos Korvesis and Dimitris Tselios will share the story behind the Da Nang Nomad Fest and the community activity that continues throughout the year.

The discussion will cover how recurring events create belonging, how local partnerships make a community sustainable, and how nomads can move from passive attendance to active contribution. The organizers report a year-round calendar of more than 150 community events and will translate that experience into practical lessons for other destinations and community builders.
