The workshop was attended by a number of leading experts in the fields of culture and digital transformation; representatives of leaders of specialized agencies and organizations; representatives of leaders of state management units, specialized agencies under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism; and a number of typical enterprises in the field of digital technology .
Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Phan Tam chaired the Workshop on "Digital transformation in the field of Culture".
Speaking at the opening of the Workshop, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Phan Tam said that the Workshop on Digital Transformation in the Cultural Sector was to launch the development of the Project on Digital Transformation in the Cultural Sector to 2030, with a vision to 2045 - the first thematic document of special significance, aiming to shape a new, long-term and systematic direction for digital transformation for the cultural sector in the digital age.
According to Deputy Minister Phan Tam, in the context of Digital Transformation that has been taking place strongly in Vietnam and around the world, the cultural sector cannot stand aside. However, unlike digital transformation in economic and technical fields, digital transformation in culture has its own unique characteristics, because culture is closely linked to intangible factors, historical depth, national identity and community memory.
Therefore, the Project on digital transformation in the cultural sector that the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism must submit to the Prime Minister in December 2025 is not only an action plan, but also a long-term strategy and orientation, aiming to establish a basic reference system for digital transformation in the cultural sector, from thinking, awareness, vision, approach, to action and implementation model. This is the foundation for the entire cultural sector to unify the orientation and gradually realize digital transformation in a suitable, synchronous, effective and humane manner.
The Deputy Minister emphasized that the Workshop plays an important role in preparing the basis of awareness and practical input content for the process of drafting the Project.
"We expect the Workshop to help shorten the time and improve the quality of the Project development, because the delegates, experts and units present today will be the core force directly participating in contributing, developing, implementing and realizing the Project's contents in practice," the Deputy Minister expressed.
Deputy Minister Phan Tam delivered the opening speech at the Workshop.
Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Phan Tam said that at the Workshop, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism hopes to achieve some initial results:
Firstly , clarify the specific characteristics and nature of digital transformation in the cultural field, unify a common understanding between the cultural - artistic community and the technology - innovation - digital transformation community.
Second, establish a number of fundamental principles of approach, ensuring that digital transformation does not flatten diversity, does not diminish the depth of cultural values - emotions - memories; on the contrary, it deepens the ability to preserve, create and spread Vietnamese cultural values in the digital environment.
Third, promote real connections between "demand" from the cultural industry and "supply" from technology businesses, laying the foundation for co-creation models that can be replicated, create widespread influence, and especially form a vibrant digital cultural ecosystem.
"We also call on units in the arts, heritage, library, publishing, museum, grassroots institutions, etc. to clearly demonstrate their responsibilities, actively and proactively contribute both intelligence and resources, closely coordinate with technology units and units and departments specializing in Digital Transformation to bring digital transformation into the essence of cultural life," Deputy Minister Phan Tam expressed.
