There is a difference between explaining a product and putting it in front of someone and saying, “Try it.” Vietnam EdTech Expo 2026 gave us the chance to do a lot of the second.
On 15 August, Wistudi joined educators, education organisations, technology companies and other members of the EdTech community at the National Exhibition Construction Center in Hanoi. The event was organised by EdTech Agency. For Wistudi, it was also an important first: one of our first large public opportunities to demonstrate the platform, put it into people’s hands and hear their reactions directly.
Showing Wistudi, not just describing it
Throughout the day, visitors were able to see Wistudi running live at our stand. The team demonstrated the platform on the large display, walked people through different learning experiences and invited visitors to explore the product hands-on.
We showed how a learning experience can bring together interactive activities, video, structured Flows, resources and printable output. We also demonstrated how Wistudi can support different ways of delivering the same learning content, whether an educator is working in a classroom, sharing something for independent learning or preparing material that needs to move from screen to paper.
That question is more valuable to us than a feature checklist. It moves the discussion towards real teaching, training and publishing situations. It also reveals where people immediately understand the platform and where they want to push it further.
From demonstrations to real use cases
Some visitors wanted to understand how Wistudi could help them create interactive teaching material. Others were interested in publishing reusable learning content, converting digital activities into printable resources, or managing learning at an organisation level.
Those conversations reflected the range of people Wistudi is being built for: teachers, independent educators and publishers, training teams, schools, organisations and businesses that need to create and deliver learning content in different ways.
The response was especially useful because people were not seeing a static presentation. They could watch a demonstration, ask for a particular workflow and then see how that idea might work in the platform. That gave us immediate feedback on what felt intuitive, what stood out and what people wanted to explore next.
Connecting with the wider EdTech community
The Expo was also an opportunity to meet companies working on different parts of the learning technology ecosystem. We had useful conversations with teams and representatives from EduSpaze, Quippy, ZEP QUIZ, Edcafe AI and ClassPoint, among others.
These were exploratory conversations, not partnership announcements. What made them interesting was the range of approaches represented, from classroom engagement and gamified learning to assessment, AI-assisted teaching tools and wider EdTech support.
For Wistudi, that matters. We do not think every useful learning technology needs to be rebuilt inside one platform. There are times when it makes more sense to build, and times when better connections between specialist tools can give educators and organisations more choice. Events like this create the space to start those conversations properly.
A stand people could participate in
We wanted the Wistudi stand to feel like a place to do something, not simply a place to collect a brochure. Alongside demonstrations, we ran activities and competitions during the day, with visitors able to take part and win prizes.
The team was also out together in our new Wistudi shirts, talking with visitors, answering questions and helping people try the platform. It may sound like a small detail, but there is something different about seeing the product, the team and the brand together in a physical space after spending so much time building behind screens.
Taking Wistudi to the stage
Wistudi was also represented on stage during the event, where Daniel from our team introduced Wistudi to a wider audience and shared what we are building. Other team members supported the Expo throughout the day, from demonstrations and conversations to the activities around the stand.
The message behind the platform is straightforward. Educators and organisations create far more than isolated lessons. They build programs, curricula, training, storybooks, resources, activities and learning experiences that need to work across different settings. Wistudi is being built to help create, publish and deliver that content in a more connected way.
What we took away from the day
The most encouraging part of the Expo was the response when people could experience Wistudi directly. Visitors asked detailed questions, explored different use cases and spent time discussing how the platform might fit into their own work.
We left with new contacts, potential areas to explore with other organisations and a stronger sense of the questions educators are asking when they see interactive and printable learning brought together in one workflow.
For a first major outing, that was exactly what we wanted. We were able to show what exists today, hear where people would like to take it and begin conversations that can continue after the event.
There is still a great deal to build. We are looking forward to more opportunities to put Wistudi in front of educators, organisations and other EdTech teams, and to keep learning from what happens when people get to try it for themselves.
