Vietnam's Road to Mount Olympia prize money evolution

Since its inception in 1999, the prize for the champion of the Vietnamese television program ‘Road to Mount Olympia’ has undergone two significant adjustments.

For the first 19 seasons (1999–2019), winners received a study abroad scholarship valued at 35,000 USD. In 2020, following an agreement with sponsor THACO, the scholarship amount was increased to 40,000 USD. The first recipient of this higher amount was Nguyen Thi Thu Hang.

In 2023, the prize saw a further increase to 50,000 USD. Le Xuan Manh, the winner of the 23rd season, became the first champion to receive this updated scholarship value.
