Hai Phong (VNA) – Eager to join hands to develop a digital nation with cutting-edge technology, the northern port city of Hai Phong has been proactively carrying out strong and comprehensive digital transformation through developing digital platforms and infrastructure, digital government, digital economy and digital society.

The municipal Party Committee has issued Resolution 03-NQ/TU on the city’s digital transformation to 2025 with a vision to 2030, which defines that digital transformation is the “driving force” for socio-economic development.

The resolution sets the goal of creating new growth values across three economic pillars, namely high-tech industry, seaport-logistics and tourism and trade, from the digital economy; forming and developing a safe and convenient digital environment that fully supports production, business and community activities; creating an innovative start-up environment, taking a proactively approach and utilising opportunities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, thus creating a solid foundation for Hai Phong to become a modern, developed industrial, civilised, sustainable city in Southeast Asia region by 2030.

According to Chairman of Hai Phong People’s Committee Nguyen Van Tung, all Party and State offices have been connected to the internet, all civil servants are provided with computers to do their duty, and the connection of specialised data transmission channels to 251/253 departments, agencies, districts, communes, wards and towns in the city has been completed (99.2%).

The video conferencing system has been connected to all communes, wards and towns in the city. In the first half year of 2023, the system has served 128 online meetings.

Also in same period, the city completed and put into operation 41 new Base Transceiver Stations (BTSs) with 4G technology, bringing the total number of BTS stations across the city to 2,362. Meanwhile, 4G mobile broadband infrastructure has covered all districts and communes, basically meeting the city's digital transformation needs as well as the high-speed data access needs of organisations and individuals in the area.

Departments, branches, district-level People's Committees and related agencies and units have installed and used I-Speed Internet service quality testing application in order to increase the number of samples for better evaluating real-time quality of telecommunications transmission lines and services in the districts.

In the same period, the total number of users of the I-Speed application reached 32,719 and the number of measured samples reached 58,743.

To soon begin the development of 5G mobile network infrastructure, the city People's Committee has sent a document to the Ministry of Information and Communications on piloting the use of 5G and IOT technology and services to serve seaports and logistics activities in the city.

Hai Phong has organised working sessions between port operating businesses and telecommunications corporations to accelerate the deployment of 5G infrastructure and technology applications in seaports.

Over the past years, Hai Phong has paid attention to implementing policies to attract investment into developing high-tech industry in local industrial parks and economic zones. The city's information technology and electronics industry has attracted many large businesses such as LG Electronics Group, Fuji Xerox, Haengsung Electronics, VinGroup. 

At present, the city is home of more than 900 information technology businesses, of which 151 produce hardware and electronic products; 152 make software products; 10 enterprises produce digital content products; 135 enterprises provide information technology services (except for trading and distribution); and 458 enterprises engage in the trading and distribution of information technology products and services.

Hai Phong has also directed localities and functional sectors to assist local farmer households to put their products on e-commerce platforms and promote the development of agricultural and rural digital economy. As a result, 179 OCOP (One Commune One Product) products have been introduced and sold on websites and e-commerce platforms such as Voso, Postmart, Shopee and Lazada, among others./.

Vietnam, Israel deepen cooperation prospects in quantum technology

After four editions of the Top Industry 4.0, this year, the programme was officially renamed “Vietnam I4 Impact Awards”, which is not just a change in name but a shift in development thinking and core values.

Experts said close coordination among State management agencies, research institutes, universities, and businesses will improve training quality and serve the dual goals of quality education and practical research application.

To promote copyright protection, Vietnam is accelerating efforts to master core technologies and build integrated platforms capable of receiving, processing, distributing and protecting digital content on a unified system.

OVs hope the two countries can establish an interconnected cooperation mechanism in the technology supply chain, from sharing research, testing, and development infrastructure to training human resources, thereby forming a technology alliance able to compete with others in the ASEAN region and the world.

Part of the Vietnam Innovation Challenge 2026, the programme goes beyond conventional coding competitions by requiring participants to develop AI-driven solutions to business challenges in real time.

Many experts in Singapore expressed their hope that the General Secretary and President’s visit will pave the way for more substantive cooperation mechanisms between Vietnam and Singapore in high technology, innovation and human resources development.

Ho Chi Minh City currently hosts 143 science and technology enterprises, accounting for around 20% of the national total. Total factor productivity (TFP) contributes 59% to the city’s GRDP growth, with science and technology responsible for 74% of TFP growth.

Over recent years, NSTDA has built strong partnerships with Vietnamese research institutes and organisations in agriculture, biotechnology, energy and sustainable development. Notable examples include joint projects on cassava value chains, salt-tolerant rice, biotechnology products and an initiative on green energy cooperation and development in the Mekong basin.

Vietnam now needs more effective digital transformation to create higher productivity, new growth models and stronger competitiveness in the AI era, said participants at the plenary session of the Vietnam-Asia DX Summit 2026.

The project aims to transform VNeID into a modern, secure and highly scalable national digital platform capable of effectively serving citizens, businesses, agencies and organisations in handling administrative procedures, accessing online public services, conducting electronic transactions and using digital utilities.

More than just a major technology competition for engineering students, this year’s event provides a platform for innovation, artificial intelligence (AI) and practical industrial applications to converge.

Regional Representative of the UNODC for Southeast Asia and the Pacific, Delphine Schantz, recommended that countries should treat the UN Convention against Cybercrime (Hanoi Convention) as a ‘starting point,’ instead of an ‘end goal.’

The inclusion of Vietnamese researchers in the 2026 Asian Scientist 100 list alongside Nobel laureates highlights Vietnam’s increasing integration into the global scientific community and its expanding research capabilities.

For Ho Chi Minh City, science, technology and innovation have been identified as key drivers of growth in the new development period. Biotechnology, therefore, is considered one of the sectors capable of generating high added value and promoting the transition towards a greener growth model.

Addressing the forum, Vietnamese Ambassador Tran Phuoc Anh expressed appreciation for the initiative to connect Vietnamese intellectuals in Singapore and make the most of the city-state’s strengths in science, technology and innovation.

Experiences from localities nationwide show that Resolution 57 is fostering a marked transformation in development mindset. Science and technology, innovation and digital transformation are increasingly becoming foundational drivers of economic growth and opening new development space for localities in the years ahead.

Vietnamese authorities handled more than 30 cases involving the illegal sale and theft of personal data between 2023 and 2025, affecting over 160 million data records across sectors including health, education, finance, banking and telecommunications.

Participants highlighted the importance of building a proactive, synchronised and sustainable national cybersecurity ecosystem through closer cooperation among regulators, technology firms, research institutions and cybersecurity experts.

Research by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) shows that AI adoption in the legal sector remains constrained by fragmented, unstandardised and weakly connected legal databases. A unified national legal data ecosystem has yet to be established, while big data and AI applications are still largely confined to pilot programmes and have not been integrated across the full legislative process, including drafting, appraisal, review and inspection of legal documents.
