Prime Minister Pham
Minh Chinh labored with the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology on February 23 on the implementation of the
Resolution of the 14th Party Congress and Resolution No. 57 of the Politburo on
science, expertise, innovation, and digital transformation.
The PM was accompanied by Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi
Dung and leaders of ministries, sectors, and central companies.
After 50 years of building and growth, the Vietnam
Academy of Science and Technology affirms its place because the core drive of the
nationwide science system. In 2025, it had 2,300 publications in prestigious
journals, and granted 105 patents and
utility options, a rise of 2.7 occasions in contrast to 2024. In the interval of
2021–2025, the Academy printed over 12,000 scientific works and granted almost 300 patents, 1.5 occasions extra
than the earlier interval.
Implementing Resolution 57 of the Politburo, out of a complete
of 45 assigned duties, the Academy accomplished 12 duties on time, with 33 duties
at the moment being carried out throughout the deadline, with no duties delayed.
Closely following the record of strategic applied sciences issued
along with Prime Ministerial Decision No. 1131/QD-TTg, dated June 12, 2025,
the Academy achieved many excellent outcomes, akin to mastering the method of
manufacturing modular {hardware} purposes of AI for autonomous electrical
autos; growing AI/IoT options for real-time detection and warning of
irregular well being situations in livestock; and growing a mannequin to predict rice
plant well being based mostly on distant sensing and deep studying.
The Academy additionally efficiently utilized gene modifying
expertise to restore the perform of the Rc gene in rice plant; recognized new
gene variants associated to colorectal most cancers, serving customized medication; and
remoted and cultured many cell traces for synthetic meat analysis. Other core
applied sciences developed embrace water electrolysis to produce hydrogen from
renewable vitality; nano supplies utilized in thermal remedy, MRI imaging, and
drug supply; and new era Lithium-ion battery electrode supplies with
excessive storage effectivity.
In addition, the Academy promotes digital transformation in
administration and administration; develops shared digital infrastructure and
platforms; and trains human sources to serve digital transformation.
At the working session, the Academy proposed to proceed
perfecting the establishments and insurance policies for science and expertise, particularly
the administration, finance, human sources mechanisms, autonomy in science and
expertise, and funding in upgrading services. The Academy recommended being
assigned to lead the implementation of 5 strategic science and expertise
tasks on superior supplies; expertise for deep processing of uncommon earths
and strategic minerals; new era UAVs; nuclear vitality expertise; and
coaching and growing high-quality science and expertise human
sources.
Additionally, the Academy proposed piloting the
institution of a global science and expertise group for
superior purposeful supplies; approving the undertaking to develop human sources
and infrastructure for quantum science and expertise analysis; and approving
the undertaking to entice excellent worldwide analysis teams and Vietnamese
individuals overseas in key expertise fields.
Speaking on the working session, Prime Minister Pham Minh
Chinh emphasised that science, expertise, innovation, and digital
transformation are inevitable developments, strategic decisions, and high priorities in
funding and growth, as they’re essential drivers to promote speedy and
sustainable progress. In this course of, the Academy performs a central position because the
main science and expertise establishment in Vietnam, a spot that gathers and
crystallizes the intelligence and creativity of intellectuals and
scientists.
The Prime Minister hopes the Academy will obtain
breakthroughs, step by step reaching the extent of superior international locations within the area
and the world, aiming to turn into a number one scientific and technological analysis
group in Southeast Asia by 2030, with worldwide competitiveness in
a number of key areas, following the motto: “Elite intelligence – Mastering
expertise – Strong innovation – Keeping up with the scenario – Creating the longer term.”
The Prime Minister requested the Academy to implement
synchronously 4 transformations, together with: digital transformation, inexperienced
transformation, vitality transformation, and transformation of the construction and
high quality of human sources; to take the lead in making use of synthetic
intelligence and large knowledge; to construct a nationwide database on science and
expertise; and to concentrate on mastering core applied sciences and supply
applied sciences, addressing sensible points of the nation.
The Academy is required to “open” laboratories, improve
cooperation with the enterprise sector, making companies the middle of the
innovation ecosystem; promote the commercialization of analysis outcomes,
turning innovations into merchandise, particular values within the worth chain.
The Prime Minister directed the Academy to construct an motion
program to implement the Resolution of the 14th Party Congress and the
strategic resolutions of the Politburo; to full the file to submit to
the Politburo for the undertaking to analysis and grasp some strategic
applied sciences earlier than March 15, 2026; to submit to the Prime Minister the undertaking
to improve the Academy’s capability in April 2026; to construct a growth
technique to 2030, a imaginative and prescient to 2045, and a mechanism for autonomy and
complete accountability.
In governance, the Prime Minister requested a powerful shift
from “task thinking” to “result thinking”; from “doing many” to “doing proper
and doing nicely”; from “having activities” to “having specific products,”
“having clear contributions to rising nationwide productiveness, high quality, and
effectivity.” At the identical time, to strengthen the linkage of the “three entities:
State – scientists – companies, and to develop mental property, science
and expertise enterprises, and the innovation startup ecosystem.
