Regional Vice President – Operation Smile Asia Pacific

“Being inspired by Bang Trinh, I was introduced to the IRONMAN70.3 and other sports as a dedicated participant to promote how sport could change our lives. Over the years, Bang and his team - Sunrise Events Vietnam (SEV) have set new standards for endurance events organized in Vietnam not only by hosting remarkable activities, but also tirelessly contributing to charitable causes while showcasing adaptability and thoughtful problem-solving. Their effort and care reflect a shared dedication in making a positive impact on the community and to myself.”

MBE – Executive Director, Newborns Vietnam

“The mutual benefits to be gained through charity and sport working together are immense, countless individuals have felt the life-changing impact of participating in sport. The benefits are there for all, no matter what age, size or skill – and all it takes is to jump in and try it. SEV has shared the Newborns Vietnam journey to reduce newborn deaths in Vietnam, in 2015 from supporting one hospital in Da Nang to 65 hospitals in 35 provinces in 2023 through education programmes saving the lives of babies born too soon, too small and too sick. At the first IRONMAN 70.3 in 2015 we saw the power of athletes to spark national conversations about some of the most important issues of our time, Caroline Steffen’s donation of her winnings to Newborns Vietnam was a testament to the power of sport to change lives. For me personally, Bang Trinh taught me the true meaning of never give up, try harder and you will make it to the finish line.”

SEV Charity Partner

“As a nonprofit organization serving Vietnamese children for almost 35 years, we pay our gratitude to mr. Bang and Sunrise Events Vietnam (SEV) for their impactful contribution to help changing lives of children with facial deformities. Their ideas and commitment to host inspiring sports events perfectly aligns with our message of “involvement creates changes” and their dedication not only promotes physical well-being but also resonate with our mission to bring smiles and hope to those in need. We value our long time partnership with SEV, a guiding force of positive change through the universal language of sport.”
