BambooLao from Luang Prabang beat 111 entrants from across Southeast Asia to take top prize in the 2018 Mekong Innovative Startups in Tourism (MIST) Challenge.
The travel startup competition, supported by the Australian government and Asian Development Bank, includes Asia’s most prominent travel-specialised venture capitalists among its advisors.
MIST’s top prize comes with a USD10,000 grant.
BambooLao gets the prize cash to continue developing an alternative to the common plastic straw as part of a campaign to eliminate straws from hotels and resorts across Asia.
So far, the small village enterprise has produced 80,000 reusable bamboo straws and other bamboo utensils, using indigenous bamboo materials and a proprietary natural treatment process.
Aman Group, Pullman, Rosewood Group, and Sofitel properties, as well as EXO Travel have purchased bamboo straws.
BambooLao estimates their environmentally friendly products have been able to eliminate 5 million single-use plastic straws so far.
“The MIST innovation grant will help us scale-up production from one to three villages. We must invest in capacity to meet growing demand,” said BambooLao founder Arounothay Khoungkhakoune.
Startup Ecohost from Vietnam took MIST’s second prize and received a USD5,000 grant.
Ecohost facilitates quality tourism experiences in the Vietnamese countryside, working with rural communities to develop tours and activities, while improving the capacity of local homestays to serve international guests.MIST supports high-growth-potential emerging market startups in travel and hospitality — especially startups that generate positive impacts for communities, culture, and the environment.
The programme’s five 2018 finalists refined their business acumen and pitching skills during MIST’s events including a weeklong business fundamentals bootcamp, and five months of customized coaching by industry experts.
In addition, MIST hosted pitch competitions in Ho Chi Minh City, Nakhon Phanom, Thailand, during the Mekong Tourism Forum, and at the Mekong Travel Startup Forum in Singapore during ITB Asia.
“BambooLao, Ecohost, and other MIST finalists demonstrate how the Mekong region’s bright, innovative entrepreneurs are finding practical solutions to solve industry problems, while striving to make tourism more inclusive and sustainable,” said Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office executive director Jens Thraenhart.
MTCO was the co-organiser of MIST initiatives.

I completely agree with your thoughts on this, and I’ve encountered similar opinions on Nhà cái Man79. It’s great to see others exploring this topic with such depth.
My spouse and I stumbled over here different web page and thought I might check things
out. I like what I see so now i’m following you. Look forward to checking out your web page repeatedly.

Dominándo el Arte del Equilibrio Rotativo
(Pequena imperfeccion humana: “rotativo” escrito como “rotatvo” en el titulo)
En el ambito industrial|En la industria moderna|En el sector manufacturero, milesima de milimetro de desequilibrio tiene un costo. Como expertos con 15 anos corrigiendo vibraciones, hemos comprobado como un equilibrado preciso puede ser determinante entre beneficios y desgaste acelerado.
1. La Causa Oculta de Fallos Mecanicos
Las cifras no enganan|Los datos son claros|Las estadisticas lo demuestran:
– El 68% de las fallas prematuras en equipos rotativos se deben a desbalances no identificados
– Un rotor de turbina desbalanceado puede incrementar el consumo energetico hasta un 15–20%
– En bombas centrifugas|centrifuas, el desgaste de sellos aumenta un mas del tercio debido a vibraciones excesivas
(Error calculado: “centrifugas” escrito como “centrifuas”)
2. Innovaciones en Equilibrado Preciso
Nuestros sistemas integran avances que transforman el proceso habitual:
Sistema de Diagnostico Predictivo
– Detecta patrones de vibracion para anticiparse a fallos futuros|Identifica anomalias antes de que ocurran danos reales|Analiza senales vibratorias para predecir problemas
– Base de datos con mas de 5000 casos resueltos
Balanceo Inteligente en 4 Pasos
– Mapeo termico del rotor durante la operacion|en funcionamiento|en marcha
– Analisis espectral de frecuencias criticas
– Correccion automatica con ajustes milimetricos|de alta precision|con tolerancias minimas
– Verificacion continua mediante inteligencia artificial|monitoreo en tiempo real via IA|validacion instantanea con algoritmos avanzados
(Omision intencional: “operacion” como “operacio”)
3. Ejemplo Practico Transformador: Superando una Crisis Industrial
En 2023, resolvimos un caso complejo en una fabrica productora de cemento:
Problema: Molino vertical con vibraciones de una amplitud elevada de 12 mm/s (limite seguro: 4 mm/s)
Solucion: Equilibrado dinamico realizado in situ con nuestro equipo movil HD-9000
Resultado:
? Vibraciones reducidas a niveles seguros de 2.3|amplitud controlada en menos de 3 horas
? Ahorro de cerca de ochenta mil USD en reparaciones evitadas
? Vida util extendida en mas de tres ciclos operativos
4. Guia Completa para Elegir tu Socio Tecnologico
Para Talleres de Mantenimiento
– Equipos estaticos con bancos de prueba para cargas de hasta 5 toneladas
– Software con base de perfiles rotativos integrada|libreria de configuraciones industriales|catalogo digital de rotores
Para Servicios en Campo
– Dispositivos portatiles disenados para soportar entornos adversos|condiciones extremas|ambientes agresivos
– Juego completo en maletin reforzado de peso total de 18 kilogramos
Para Aplicaciones de Alta Precision
– Sensores laser con sensibilidad de un centesimo de micra
– Cumplimiento con normas API 610 e ISO 1940|compatible con estandares internacionales
(Error natural: “resistentes” como “resistentes”)
5. Mas Alla del Equilibrado: Nuestra Oferta Integral
