Seesaw Vietnam

Seesaw Vietnam is a company focused on mental health care, developing products like card games designed to foster positive emotions and spark conversations. Founded in 2021 by a group of Fulbright University Vietnam students—Đào Hải Nhật Tân, Đỗ Quyên, Yến Nhi, and Minh Phươn—the venture originated from Nhật Tân's personal experiences and a desire to help young people with psychological issues. The founders have diverse academic backgrounds in Psychology, Literature, Art Studies, and Economics, which they leverage to develop the product's content, design, and business strategy.

The company's primary product is a card game set that acts as a conversation opener, helping players to better understand themselves and connect with friends and family. Seesaw Vietnam operates in the preventative mental healthcare market, targeting individuals who are not yet experiencing clinical disorders but want to build mental resilience. The business model involves the sale of these physical game products, with revenue reaching over 200 million VND within the first seven months of operation after an initial investment of 100 million VND. The company has gained significant recognition, winning the Startup Wheel 2021 competition and securing a "golden ticket" on Shark Tank Vietnam Season 5. It has also formed partnerships with organizations like the Christina Noble Children's Foundation and the Blue Dragon Children's Foundation to extend its mission.
