"30 Under 30" is a list of rising stars of the future generation in various fields that was issued by Forbes USA magazine for the first time four years ago. This is the first time Forbes Vietnam has published a 30 under 30 list.

The candidates for the list were nominated by the public and then selected by the category judges of Forbes Vietnam.

On the list, there are faces widely known in Vietnam, especially among young people, such as Nguyen Ha Dong (computer game design – Flappy Bird creator), comedian Tran Thanh, blogger Tran Duc Viet - JVevermind (social media) and chess master Le Quang Liem.

There are some people who are unknown to the public, but they are highly respected in their fields for their success, like Thi Anh Dao (electronic marketing) and Luong Duy Hoai (e-commerce).

Ms. Nguyen Lan Anh, editorial secretary of Forbes Vietnam, said that when the magazine asked the 30 people "What do you want to change the most?", two-thirds of them answered that they wanted to change education and social awareness in Vietnam.

The Under 30 Summit Vietnam Conference, an activity for young people who desire to succeed, is expected to be held this April in HCM City.
