Discussing the aspirations of businesses, Dr. Gian Tu Trung, Principal of PACE Business School and Director of IREDEducation Institute, acknowledged that all businesses, whether newly established or long-standing, must have aspirations and a spirit of innovation.
To foster the spirit of innovation, he believes that the role of the state and schools is needed, in which the intrinsic aspirations of businesses are important and sustainable. According to Dr. Gian Tu Trung, business is making money by serving society, through good products and services of businesses in general, and innovative businesses in particular.
Experts, startups, businessmen, etc. also frankly shared and gave opinions to the leaders of Ho Chi Minh City on issues related to the environment, traffic, and policies to support the business community in the field of innovation.
Besides the efforts of businesses, opinions say that support from the Ho Chi Minh City government is needed, through specific support policies such as planning and goals for each field.
Some other businesses are interested in the environmental field and recommend that the city needs to build a vision in building green infrastructure for transportation to ensure that the green transportation transition does not lag behind the world 's development.
Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh (General Director of GSM Company) said that the city's green transformation policy is not really outstanding, especially towards green consumers, green production... He looks forward to these policies to support innovative start-up businesses.
In the same field of electric vehicle manufacturing, Mr. Nguyen Huu Phuoc Nguyen (Director of Selex Smart Electric Vehicle Joint Stock Company) hopes that the city will have a policy on shared energy infrastructure for electric vehicles to convert to green transportation faster, such as building charging stations, battery sharing stations and even price support for consumers... He proposed that Ho Chi Minh City should first focus on converting in the group of freight transport enterprises.
Regarding attracting human resources for the field of innovation, Mr. Nguyen Ba Diep, Vice President of MoMo, suggested that the city needs to be more specific in its policies to support innovative startups, especially policies to attract and develop human resources. Because innovative startups need high-quality human resources, including attracting high-quality human resources from abroad.
