Promoting the application of UAVs in smart transportation.

DNVN - On December 15th, the Vietnam Low Altitude Economic Alliance (LAEP) signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Japan UAV Association (JUIDA), opening up new avenues for development in next-generation transportation, particularly in the applications of UAVs, drones, and related technology ecosystems.

The cooperation agreement between the two sides focuses on three main pillars. Firstly, LAEP and JUIDA will jointly share experiences in building institutions, legal frameworks, and international standards for the UAV and intelligent transportation sectors, with LAEP hoping to learn from the management and operational models that Japan has successfully implemented.

Secondly, it aims to promote business connections, creating conditions for businesses from both countries to interact, seek business cooperation opportunities, develop products, and expand markets.

Thirdly, the two sides will cooperate in training and developing human resources, especially in the areas of UAV operation and coordination, new technologies, and management according to international standards, thereby transferring experience and systematic training processes from Japan to Vietnam.

Speaking at the event, LAEP representative and Chairman Nguyen Van Khoa emphasized the desire for both sides to strengthen information exchange and mutual support in building a legal framework and standards for the UAV industry in Vietnam, while also promoting connections between Vietnamese technology companies and Japanese partners.

Mr. Khoa believes that Vietnam has a significant advantage in its young, dynamic workforce, which can quickly adapt to new technologies, while Japan has strengths in standards, processes, and practical implementation experience. This combination will contribute to enhancing national competitiveness, promoting a new generation transportation ecosystem, and deepening Vietnam-Japan technological cooperation in the future.

JUIDA's representative, President Shinji Suzuki, stated that the association, established in 2014, is one of the pioneering organizations in UAVs and drones in Japan. JUIDA has been deeply involved in the development of institutional frameworks, standards, and operational guidelines for drones, and has also developed a network of over 200 training schools in Japan and other regions.

The association also plays a crucial role in training human resources for UAV operation, organizing training programs and specialized exhibitions such as the annual Japan Drone Exhibition, attracting significant attention from the international technology community. To date, JUIDA has signed more than 44 memoranda of cooperation with partners in many countries, contributing to promoting international standardization, including ISO standards related to UAVs and next-generation logistics.
