Under the sponsorship agreement, TECCO1 will contribute VND 50 million annually over five years (2026–2030), for a total sponsorship commitment of VND 250 million. The company's contribution will help the Organizing Committee maintain and further enhance the quality of the Loa Thanh Awards while fostering academic excellence, scientific research, and innovation among students in architecture and construction.
The Loa Thanh Awards were initiated by the Vietnam Association of Civil Engineering (now the Vietnam Federation of Civil Engineering Associations) and were established in 1988 to recognize outstanding graduation projects by university students in the fields of construction and architecture. Over nearly four decades of development, the Awards have continuously expanded in both scale and disciplinary coverage, becoming one of Vietnam's most prestigious academic awards and playing a significant role in discovering and fostering generations of talented engineers, architects, and urban planners.
As one of Vietnam's leading engineering consulting firms specializing in surveying, design, and consulting services for transport, railway, and infrastructure projects, TECCO1 recognizes human capital development as the foundation of sustainable growth. By supporting the Loa Thanh Awards throughout the 2026–2030 period, the company not only demonstrates its corporate social responsibility toward education and talent development but also reaffirms its long-term commitment to nurturing a new generation of highly skilled, innovative, and globally competitive engineers and architects, contributing to the sustainable development of Vietnam's construction industry.
