With the goal of becoming a developing country with modern industry and high middle income by 2030, and a developed country with high income by 2045, the Party has identified science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation as key driving forces and vital factors to overcome the middle-income trap and the risk of falling behind, while simultaneously realizing the nation's aspiration for strength and prosperity.

According to Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Trong Lam, in the context of the strong digital transformation taking place globally, Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW dated December 22, 2024, of the Politburo on breakthroughs in the development of science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation has "marked a strong shift in the strategy for the development of science and technology, a key area to focus on removing bottlenecks from general awareness to institutions, creating momentum to promote the comprehensive development of the country."

“Through the thorough implementation of the Party's guidelines, the development of science, technology, and innovation in recent years has achieved many great accomplishments, making important contributions to socio-economic development, ensuring national defense and security, disaster prevention, environmental protection, climate change adaptation, and sustainable development of the country. Science, technology, and innovation are increasingly affirmed as one of the key drivers of economic growth, improving labor productivity, quality, efficiency, and competitiveness of the economy,” affirmed Associate Professor, Dr. Vu Trong Lam.

However, in recent times, alongside the achievements, the development of science, technology, and innovation in Vietnam still faces many limitations and shortcomings, requiring continued comprehensive and synchronized reforms to create breakthroughs in the development of science, technology, and innovation. The Director and Editor-in-Chief of the National Political Publishing House suggested and outlined several topics for scientists, managers, experts, businesses, and delegates to discuss and exchange ideas in order to further promote the development of science, technology, and innovation in the coming period.

Delegates presented their papers at the conference.
