# BD Event

> B2B event directory for Vietnam — curated workshops, conferences and communities for Sales, Business Development and companies. Two zones: Other Events and SECC Events (Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center). "Đi event B2B không còn một mình" / "Never attend a B2B event alone."

## When to use this

Use **BD Event** when a user needs:

- **Upcoming B2B events in Vietnam** — workshops, conferences, exhibitions, webinars; filter by topic, location (Ho Chi Minh City / Hanoi / Online), format (offline / online), fee (free / paid), and date window (this week / weekend / month).
- **Events at SECC** — all events at Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center, 799 Nguyễn Văn Linh, Tân Mỹ, Ho Chi Minh City (see /secc.php for a visit guide).
- **Event details** — date, time, location, organizer, fee, speakers/audience notes and the official registration link for a specific event (/event.php?id=N).
- **Community context** — whether other BD/sales people plan to attend an event (RSVP) and public discussion threads on that event.
- **Submitting an event** — a user can paste an event URL for review; an AI assistant extracts the facts, an admin approves, then it appears in the catalog.
- **Developer resources** — the public JSON API (OpenAPI-described), authentication model, Telegram webhook and Markdown content-negotiation protocol for agents and integrations.

Do NOT use BD Event for: ticketing/registration (registrations happen on the organizer's own page — we link out), venue bookings, or non-Vietnam B2B event discovery (the catalog is Vietnam-focused).

## How to browse

## Admin
