Major General Nguyen Ngoc Cuong, Director of the National Data Center, said the birth of VDEN is a “historic milestone in the journey of building Vietnam's data economy”, demonstrating the determination to turn data from potential into a real driving force for development.

“Data is the new oil of the 21st century. To exploit this valuable resource, Vietnam needs the best team of “Knowledge Engineers” - experts with vision, international experience and a spirit of dedication to the homeland,” Mr. Cuong shared.

After many months of connection, the VDEN Network has gathered nearly 80 Vietnamese experts working at leading corporations, research institutes and universities in the US, Japan, Korea, Canada, Australia and Europe. According to Mr. Cuong, the National Data Center will be the “brain”, and the VDEN Network will be the “source of external intelligence”, together forming a national data ecosystem.

Experts, scientists, and technology entrepreneurs attended the program.

The Center and the Association are currently coordinating to implement a cooperation mechanism with the Network, prioritizing the construction of a Sandbox to test the application of artificial intelligence, big data and blockchain, ensuring security and confidentiality according to international standards.

“No matter where we are, let's work together to turn this Network into a heart of knowledge, beating strongly for the future of the country,” said Major General Nguyen Ngoc Cuong.

The Global Data Experts Network aims to build a sustainable connection forum between the “4 houses”: State - Enterprise - Academia - Experts. Key activities include: Sharing information, technology and new data trends; advising on policies, proposing national data standards; encouraging the development of data application projects that bring practical value; organizing training and fostering the next generation of human resources in the field of data science.
