As Viet Nam aims to gain a modern industrial base by 2030 and become a developed, high-income country by 2045, science, technology, innovation and digital transformation have been identified as a major driving force, a “golden key” and a vital factor in realising the nation’s development aspirations, said PM Le Minh Hung while addressing a ceremony in Ha Noi on May 18 marking Viet Nam Science, Technology and Innovation Day (May 18) and a conference on strategic technology implementation.
Amid increasingly intense global technological competition, the Party and the State have introduced a series of major policies. Among them, Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW, issued by the Politburo on December 22, 2024, on breakthroughs in science and technology development, innovation, and national digital transformation, identified the development of strategic technologies as a pillar for rapid and sustainable growth.
Under the decision, Vietnam’s strategic technology framework comprises 10 major technology groups covering key sectors critical to the country’s long-term development and competitiveness.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is bringing profound changes across industries, while Viet Nam’s education and vocational training system is entering a phase of restructuring. These two “waves” are reshaping how the labour market operates, placing learners before constantly evolving choices.
Dong Nai possesses significant potential and advantages to develop science and technology (S&T), innovation, and digital transformation (DT) across government, the business community, and society as a whole.
Vietnam's export turnover of digital technology products reached 20.3 million USD, up 39.6%, while after-tax profit stood at 44.5 trillion VND and state budget contributions totaled 8.23 trillion VND.
Amid intensifying global technological competition, many countries are shifting decisively towards growth models based on knowledge and technology. For Viet Nam, innovation has been identified as a key driver to enhance productivity and competitiveness.
