Mr. Christopher Scholl, Deputy Consul General of Germany in Ho Chi Minh City, expressed his desire to continue promoting connections between German organizations and major Vietnamese universities, not only through government channels but also with the support of academics and experts.
The agreement is expected to create a premise for joint initiatives in research, policy dialogue and digital transformation, thereby contributing to promoting economic development and innovation in Vietnam and the Federal Republic of Germany.
The RISE Institute was established in early 2025, with former Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong as Chairman of the Scientific Council. The Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) is a political organization under the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) - the party of former Chancellor Angela Merkel and current Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
