Enrich yourself and foster entrepreneurial creativity through books.

There are so many books available today, but if you just read them and leave the knowledge there, it will remain in the book. The key to success for those who read is knowing how to systematically synthesize that knowledge and apply it to real-world situations.

"Books and entrepreneurial innovation" is the theme that Hanoi University of Science and Technology is focusing on in the Vietnam Book and Reading Culture 2025 event.

Associate Professor Dr. Dinh Van Hai - Director of the Center for Digital Communication and Knowledge, Hanoi University of Science and Technology - shared that for a leading technical university like Hanoi University of Science and Technology, fostering reading habits and an academic reading culture is a top priority.

The school aims to build a foundation that fosters critical thinking and an innovative spirit in science and engineering students, which are core elements of the digital age intellectual generation.

Associate Professor Dinh Van Hai emphasized that books are both the source of ideas and play the role of guides, inspiring and building the character of those who dare to think, dare to act, and dare to overcome challenges to realize their entrepreneurial dreams.

The school is always committed to building an ecosystem that supports innovation and entrepreneurship for students, from academic activities and scientific research to innovative idea competitions, focusing on creating modern learning spaces, digital libraries, and entrepreneurship book collections—places to nurture knowledge and willpower.

Sharing his entrepreneurial spirit related to reading with students, Dr. Duong Manh Cuong (School of Economics , Hanoi University of Science and Technology) argued that the key to success is innovation, but first and foremost, it must start with oneself; changing one's inner strength, mindset, working methods, habits, and having a clear roadmap.

Besides methods, it's necessary to change people, developing their body, mind, and spirit. According to Mr. Cuong, from a certain perspective, today's students have big dreams but are still struggling to figure out how to achieve them. Sometimes they lack motivation or lose direction, so they stop, give up halfway, and don't continue their entrepreneurial journey.

Books are the culmination of accumulated knowledge, and nowadays, the content and quantity of books are very abundant. Students with foreign language skills can easily access original foreign books. However, he believes that books only truly have value when readers know how to systematically synthesize knowledge and apply it to practice.
